Sheet pan magic makes weekend breakfast simple: thick slices of brioche get fully submerged in a rich, cinnamon-spiced custard, then baked in a single layer until the tops turn deep golden and the centers go springy and set. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and a splash of vanilla give every slice that warm, bakery-style flavor without any fussy stovetop flipping. Baking instead of pan-frying means every piece cooks evenly at once, so you get a whole tray of golden, custardy toast ready at the same time. Finish with a dusting of powdered sugar and a generous drizzle of maple syrup for the classic diner-style finish. This one's an easy addition to a dairy free brunch spread, since it comes together on one pan with minimal cleanup.

Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
1 loaf (about 1 lb) brioche bread, cut into 12 slices (about 1-inch thick)
4 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
Chef's tip
Use plain, unsweetened soy milk, measured 1:1. It's one of the most reliable milk swaps and works in sauces, custards, and baked goods. For hot or acidic drinks, a barista-style soy milk resists curdling.
½ cup heavy cream
Chef's tip
Use unsweetened dairy-free heavy cream in cooked sauces, soups, and ganache. For whipped uses, choose a product labeled whippable.
3 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
¼ tsp salt

For serving

powdered sugar, for serving (optional)
maple syrup, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Pour 2 tbsp of the melted butter onto an 18x13-inch rimmed sheet pan and use a pastry brush to coat the surface evenly.
2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt until smooth and fully combined.
