Steps:

  • In a wide, shallow bowl, beat the eggs with the cream, milk, golden caster sugar and sherry. Cut each slice of bread in two and dip them into the egg mix, turning to make sure they get a good coating on either side. Soak bread in egg mixture for 10 mins to absorb the liquid (carefully turn them over from time to time and make sure they don't get too soggy).
  • Heat 1½ tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan and cook the bread for about 3 mins on each side until dark golden and crisp on the edge. Keep the slices warm in a low oven as you cook the rest.
  • Divide the torrijas between plates and dust with the icing sugar. Serve with crème fraîche or Greek yogurt on the side.

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350. Boil a kettle full of water for the water bath.
  • Put the milk, cream, 1 cup sugar, cinnamon, bean, extract and lemon peel in a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, remove from heat and discard the cinnamon, bean and peel.
  • Arrange the brioche slices in a spiral in a deep 9-by-13-inch ovenproof baking dish. Gently pour the milk-and-cream mixture on top, allowing the brioche to slowly soak up most of the liquid.
  • In a medium bowl, beat the egg yolks together with 1/2 cup sugar until thick and light in color, about 2 minutes. Spread the mixture over the brioche slices, covering them completely and evenly.
  • Put the baking dish in a baking pan; put the whole thing in the oven. Carefully pour boiling water into the baking pan so it comes up the sides of the dish as much as possible. Bake until the top is golden and the egg is slightly puffed, about 20 minutes. Serve.

Steps:

  • In a wide shallow bowl, combine the eggs, milk, cream, and salt.
  • Combine the cinnamon and sugar on a plate.
  • Soak a piece or two of bread in the egg mixture (do not crowd) while you put the butter and oil in a large skillet over med-high heat.
  • Turn the bread in the egg mixture so it soaks well; when the butter melts and its foam subsides, add the soaked bread, again without crowding (will probably have to cook bread in batches).
  • Brown the bread nicely on both sides, for a total of 6-10 minutes, then transfer each piece in turn to the cinnamon sugar mixture; turn to coat both sides evenly and serve hot.

  • Cut the bread in slices Cut the bread in slices of around one inch or 2.5 centimeters. I recommended using bread from the previous day or even bread that is two or three days old. If the bread is hard, it can soak up more milk.
  • Cut off a few small pieces of fresh lemon and orange peel. 3. Let the bread soak in milkMix the milk with the cinnamon stick and the orange & lemon peel. Afterward soak the slices of bread in the milk and let it rest for around four hours. The longer you soak the bread in the milk the juicier the Torrijas will get.
  • Dip the bread in the eggAfter four hours, take the pieces of bread out of the milk and let them drain for a few minutes. Meanwhile, beat the eggs in a shallow bowl. In the next step dip the bread slices with both sides one by one in the egg.
  • Deep fry the soaked bread slicesHeat up around 1 inch of olive oil in a pan and carefully transfer the soaked bread slices into the oil. I recommend using a spatula and a fork as the bread will be very soft and can break easily. Fry the slices for around two to three minutes on each side until they are brown.
