Skillet French Toast

Ingredients: ●       6-8 slices of thick cut brioche bread (¾”- 1 1/4” is my favorite) ●       3 large egg yolks ●       1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream ●       ¼ cup sugar ●       1 tbsp vanilla ●       ¼ tsp salt ●       1 tsp ground cinnamon ●       Dash of nutmeg ●       Powdered sugar for serving ●       Syrup for serving ●       Butter for cooking   Instructions: 1.      Allow the bread to sit out overnight on a wire rack. This helps the bread be able to absorb the wet mixture when dipping and hold shape. 2.      In a mixing bowl, whisk together heavy cream, egg yolks, sugar, vanilla, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. 3.      Transfer the wet mixture into a shallow dish for easier dipping. 4.      Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-low heat for approximately 5 minutes. 5.      When the cast iron skillet is preheated, melt ½ tablespoon of butter in the skillet. Give it a swirl to ensure the whole bottom of the skillet is lightly coated with the melted butter. ***Add butter in between batches of toast 6.      Let the bread soak in the wet mixture for 15-30 seconds on each side before adding to the hot skillet. ***Allow the excess wet mixture to drip off of the bread before adding it to the skillet. 7.      Cook each piece of toast for 3-5 minutes on each side, or until they have reached your desired doneness, then remove from the skillet. 8.      Dust with powdered sugar, top with syrup, and enjoy!
