Thick slices of bread (challah or brioche) dipped in a sweetened, spiced egg and milk mixture and fried in butter until golden; served with syrup and fruit.
Dip the bread slices in the mixture, 30 seconds per side.
💡Bread that's a day or two old soaks up the mixture without falling apart; very fresh bread tears when dipped.

Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat and fry each slice 2–3 minutes per side, until browned and golden.

💡Medium heat, not high: the slice needs time to cook through inside before the butter browns it outside.
💡What you brown (meat, patties, schnitzel) goes into hot oil: in lukewarm oil it soaks it up and comes out greasy. For onion and garlic that you soften, oil heated over medium or low heat is enough; do not wait for it to smoke.
