Notes
- How Do You Make Brioche French Toast Not Soggy?
- When you dip the bread in the custard, you don’t need to soak it. Just get a nice coating and then allow the excess to drip off before cooking it.
- If you soak the bread, your French toast will be soggy. Brioche is very soft and will absorb a lot of the custard if you leave it sit in it.
