This scrumptious French Toast Recipe brings fresh brioche bread, eggs, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ground cloves together for the ultimate edible pillows of pure comfort drizzled with warm vanilla maple syrup. I love to prepare this recipe on long leisurely Sundays along with sausage patties and fresh fruit. The family loves it and always sings my praises when I prepare it for them.
