(makes 2 slices) Cooking time: 10 mins

Prep time: 5 mins

Ingredients 1 egg 1/4 tsp cinnamon powder 2 tsp granulated sugar 50ml full-cream milk 2 slices brioche bread 1/4 tsp icing sugar maple syrup, for drizzling 4 tsp chocolate sauce strawberries, for garnish Method 1. Whisk together egg, cinnamon powder, granulated sugar and milk. Soak brioche in this mixture for 2-3 minutes. 2. Preheat oven to 180°C. Remove brioche from egg mixture, squeezing out excess slightly. Place brioche on a baking tray. Reserve excess egg mixture for later use. 3. Place baking tray in oven for 5-7 minutes, checking regularly to ensure bread turns golden but doesn’t burn. 4. Remove brioche and leave to cool for 10 minutes. 5. Gently brush reserved egg mixture on brioche and bake again for 2-3 minutes. 6. Remove and dust with icing sugar. Drizzle with maple syrup and chocolate sauce and garnish with strawberries. Pack in lunch box when at room temperature. Note: Brioche has a distinct, sweet flavour and is extremely soft, making it ideal for this recipe, but if you can’t find it, any other type of soft, sweet bread can be substituted.
