Instructions
Make the Cereal Milk
Combine whole milk and cereal in a bowl and let steep for 10 minutes. Strain the milk through a fine mesh sieve pressing on the cereal to extract all the flavor. Discard the soggy cereal.
Make the Custard
Whisk the cereal milk together with eggs sugar vanilla extract and cinnamon in a shallow baking dish until fully combined and smooth.
Soak the Bread
Dip each slice of brioche into the custard mixture letting it soak for 30 seconds per side. Do not soak for too long or the bread will fall apart in the pan.
Cook the French Toast
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook each soaked slice for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
