Indulge in a decadent breakfast of Bourbon Maple Bacon French Toast, featuring thick, custardy bread soaked in a rich mixture of eggs, milk, and bourbon, topped with crispy bacon and warm maple syrup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 slices of thick bread (Brioche, challah, or sourdough)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons bourbon
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 strips of crispy bacon
  • Butter for cooking
  • Powdered sugar for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the custard: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, bourbon, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
  2. Heat your skillet: Over medium heat, add a pat of butter until it melts and sizzles.
  3. Soak the bread: Dip each slice of bread into your egg mixture for about 15-20 seconds on each side.
  4. Cook your French toast: Gently place the soaked bread into the skillet and cook until golden brown, approximately 3-4 minutes per side.
  5. Crisp up the bacon: In a separate pan, cook your bacon to your desired level of crispiness.
  6. Serve with style: Top your French toast stack with crispy bacon, drizzle with warm maple syrup, and sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.

Notes

Consider making the custard a night before for busy mornings. You can also customize toppings with fresh berries or whipped cream.
