Preparation Steps
- In a mixing bowl, combine eggs, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and granulated sugar. Beat them together until you achieve a smooth and creamy mixture; this will be the flavorful batter that hugs each bite!
- Slice the brioche bread into 2-inch cubes. Make sure the pieces are uniform to ensure even cooking. Dip each cube into the egg mixture for about 5 seconds, allowing it to soak but not saturate.
- In a deep skillet, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). You can test if the oil is ready by dropping a small piece of bread in—if it sizzles, you’re good to go!
- Carefully place the dipped bread cubes in batches into the hot oil. Fry them for about 3 minutes on each side until they turn a beautiful golden brown and crispy all over.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked bites to a plate lined with paper towels. This step helps to remove any excess oil, keeping your bites perfectly crispy without being greasy.
- Serve the warm French toast bites alongside shot glasses of pure maple syrup for dipping. Encourage your guests to enjoy the delightful contrast of crispy bites and sweet syrup!
