Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 slices thick bread (brioche or challah)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk (or half-and-half)
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • butter or cooking spray (for greasing)
  • 3 large ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 3 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup water

Equipment

  • waffle iron
  • mixing bowls
  • whisk
  • small saucepan
  • wooden spoon or spatula

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon until smooth.
  2. Preheat the waffle iron and lightly grease with butter or spray.
  3. Dip each slice of bread into the custard, coating both sides well.
  4. Cook bread slices in the waffle iron until golden and crisp, about 3–4 minutes per slice.
  5. Meanwhile, combine peaches, honey, brown sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, and water in a saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until peaches soften and sauce thickens, about 8–10 minutes.
  6. Stack the French toast waffles on plates and spoon peach sauce over the top before serving.

Notes

Use day-old brioche or challah for the best texture. The peach sauce can be swapped for seasonal fruits like berries, apples, or pears. For dairy-free, use almond or oat milk. Keep waffles warm in a 200°F oven if cooking in batches.
