Instructions
Whisk together all Custard ingredients in a shallow dish until well combined. Let sit for 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Soak each slice of Homemade Brioche bread in the Custard mixture for 90-120 seconds per side, ensuring it's fully saturated.
Melt 2 tablespoons of European-style Butter in a large cast iron skillet over medium-low heat.
Cook 1-2 slices of soaked bread at a time for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with remaining Butter and bread.
While French toast is cooking, spread the Muscovado sugar evenly on a baking sheet.
Once French toast is cooked, immediately sprinkle the hot French toast with the Muscovado sugar, ensuring it adheres well.
Place the sugared French toast under the broiler for 3-4 minutes, watching carefully, until the sugar is melted and caramelized. (Alternatively, use a kitchen torch to brulee the sugar).
Drizzle with Grade A Maple syrup, dollop with Crème fraîche, dust with Confectioners' sugar and serve immediately with Seasonal berries.
