Creme Brûlée French Toast has toasted baguette slices with a gooey brown sugar topping baked in the oven for an EASY, but over the top, breakfast.
She calls it Creme Brûlée French Toast and the name is perfect. They have a sugar coating on them just like the top of a creme brûlée. How she achieved this was brilliant, no torch required.
How do you make Creme Brûlée French Toast
You combine melted butter and brown sugar together and spread it on a lined baking sheet. Next you soak baguette slices in your milk and egg mixture for 30 minutes and lay each slice on top of the brown sugar mixture. Then you sit down with a cup of tea and read the paper or talk to friends and family while it bakes in the oven.

Ingredients
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- ½ cup butter melted
- 2 eggs beaten
- 1 ½ cups whole milk
- 3 tablespoons orange juice optional
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 10 ounces baguette sliced 1 inch thick
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375º.
- Mix together brown sugar and melted butter and spread onto an 11 x 17 inch rimmed baking sheet.
- Combine remaining ingredients except for bread and pour into a 9 x 13 pan. Add bread slices to the egg mixture turning after a few minutes to allow the bread to soak up as much of the egg mixture as possible. Let it sit for 15 minutes.
- Place bread slices on the brown sugar/butter mixture on the lined baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes until the tops of the bread slices are golden brown and the sugar is bubbly.
- Remove bread slices and serve with the brown sugar side up.
- Note: Use day old bread. Remove the bread from the pan right away and spoon extra brown sugar mixture over the top if desired.
