SOAK / DRAIN / BROWN / FINISH

A custardy middle. A golden edge.

Start with the day-old or stale bread called for below. The short soak and rack rest are separate steps: let the custard absorb, then let the excess drip away before the bread meets the pan.

Eight slices of bread are specified; this is not a tested serving count. Butter left in the pan makes THC per slice an estimate.

Ingredients

Brioche slices, three eggs, half-and-half, honey, salt and butter for French toast
Use the listed half-inch bread slices. Keep soaking, rack draining, pan browning and the oven finish as separate stages.

Instructions

  1. Honey and egg custard whisked in a shallow dish beside sliced brioche

    Whisk the custard and preheat

    In medium size mixing bowl, whisk together the half-and-half, eggs, honey, and salt. When ready to cook, pour custard mixture into a pie pan and set aside.

    Preheat oven to 375 F.

  2. Bread soaking in custard beside dipped slices draining on a rack

    Soak, then drain on a rack

    Dip bread into mixture, allow soaking for 30 seconds on each side, and then place to a cooling rack that is sitting in a sheet pan, and allow to sit for 1 to 2 minutes.

  3. Two French toast slices browning in butter in a nonstick pan

    Brown two slices at a time

    Over medium-low heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a 10-inch nonstick saute pan.

    Place 2 slices of bread at a time into the pan and cook until golden brown, approximately 2 to 3 minutes per side.

  4. Golden French toast slices on a rack over a baking sheet after the oven finish

    Finish in the oven and serve

    Remove from pan and place on rack in oven for 5 minutes.

    Repeat with all 8 slices.

    Serve immediately with maple syrup, whipped cream or fruit.

COOKING NOTES

Small details, better toast.

Use the specified thickness
Cut the bread ½ inch thick so each slice follows the same soak and cooking sequence. Stale country loaf, brioche, and challah are the listed choices.
Keep the rack in the plan
Set the rack over a sheet pan before dipping. It catches excess custard and carries the browned slices into the oven for their five-minute finish.
Serve the finish separately
Maple syrup, whipped cream, and fruit are serving options in the method. Add them at the table rather than to the custard.

Butter in the pan is not a measured dose.

The recipe uses 4 tablespoons of pot butter across the eight bread slices. Uneven absorption and butter left behind make per-slice THC uncertain. Use known infusion strength in the THC estimator; do not treat a bread slice as a fixed dose. Refrigerate leftover toast promptly.

Label as cannabis edibles and lock away from children and pets. Effects can take up to two hours to be felt; avoid taking more while waiting.
