This Baileys Hazelnut Brioche French Toast Will Keep You Warm All Winter Long
Making french toast is like riding a bike; once you learn, you never forget—plus you can switch gears (no pun intended, I swear!) by doing a wheelie, which is basically like the equivalent to adding Baileys to your french toast. With the stale bread that's been sitting on your counter for over a month, and a few ingredients in your fridge, you'll have the best excuse to eat dessert for breakfast that's been bathed in butter and maple syrup.
Choose a morning in December, preferably one by a roaring fire. Accompany it with the faint sound of Michael Bublé Christmas Radio, then start your day merry and bright with french toast that has an extra swig of holiday spirit. 'Tis the season, am I right?
If you don't have Irish cream, fear not! Simply substitute eggnog or another holiday cream such as gingerbread. As a last resort, mix a quarter cup of milk with 1 teaspoon of almond extract, 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of espresso powder.
