For many, French toast recalls warm memories of weekend brunches and comforting breakfasts. But have you ever wondered what takes it from a simple dish to exceptional? The answer lies in the foundation – the bread itself. Here at Glenroy Bakery, we believe brioche is on a different level when crafting the ultimate French toast experience.

This dedication elevates your French toast game, offering the perfect canvas for delicious success.
Why Brioche? A Match Made in Breakfast Heaven
Brioche isn’t just another breakfast bread; it’s the undisputed champion of French toast. Here’s why:
- Luxurious Texture: Brioche boasts an unmatched airy, pillowy crumb. This delicate yet sturdy structure allows the bread to absorb the egg batter without becoming soggy. Each bite is a delightful balance of soft, eggy indulgence and a satisfying, slight chew.
- Rich Buttery Flavor: Unlike standard white bread, brioche is enriched with fresh butter and eggs. This creates a rich, buttery flavour profile and a natural sweetness that complements the French toast batter beautifully, resulting in a harmonious taste sensation.
- Superior Absorption: The open crumb of brioche is key. It allows for optimal absorption of the egg batter, ensuring every bite bursts with delicious eggy goodness without the dreaded soggy centre that can plague French toast attempts using regular bread.
Unlocking French Toast Perfection: Tips from the Bakers
Here are some additional tips from our expert bakers for you to make a delicious French toast with Glenroy Bakery’s brioche loaves:
- Slice Thickness: Aim for slices between 3/4 and 1 inch thick. This sweet spot ensures the centre cooks through without sacrificing that delightful, fluffy texture.
- Batter Perfection: Use your imagination and be creative. Experiment with different flavourings in your egg batter, such as vanilla extract, cinnamon, or a touch of nutmeg.
- Cooking with Care: Patience is key! Cook your French toast over medium heat and take your time. The reward? A gorgeous golden brown exterior and a perfectly cooked, eggy centre that will melt in your mouth.
