The sumptuousness of crème brûlée and the coziness of French toast come together in a wonderful way in overnight crème brûlée French toast. This meal takes the basic breakfast staple and gives it a French twist, making it more refined. If you make it the night before, the custard may soak into the bread to make it a luxurious and stress-free breakfast. Indulge in this delightful delicacy on holiday mornings, during brunch parties, or whenever you feel like treating yourself.
Enjoy this French toast with some whipped cream, some fresh berries, or even some warm maple syrup. It would go well with a light arugula salad or crispy bacon for a savory contrast. The ideal finishing touch to any meal is a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice or a piping hot cup of coffee.
