A delightful twist on traditional French toast, inspired by Haitian flavors.
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick slices and let them dry overnight.
Drying the bread helps it absorb the custard without becoming soggy.
In a bowl, whisk together the cream, eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar until well combined.
Ensure the spices are evenly distributed for a consistent flavor.
Dip each bread slice into the custard mixture, allowing it to soak briefly.
Don't soak the bread for too long to avoid it falling apart.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the soaked bread slices until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side.
Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
Dust the cooked toast with powdered sugar and serve warm.
Serve with syrup or fresh fruits for added flavor.
