HINT: We got this vanilla cream brioche bread at Walmart. If you don't have the available where you live, I'd suggest using a regular brioche and adding ¼ teaspoon of pure vanilla extract to your egg mixture to recreate that vanilla essence. However, the recipe still works with just regular brioche!
We recommend that you also have whipped cream, powdered sugar and fresh berries on hand for serving this spiked french toast.

Hi. I am giving your recipe a 5 star rating because it sounds delicious. I love Bailey's and my husband and I love French Toast, and I am always looking for new and different ways to make it. I have not made this yet because I have not been able to find vanilla cream brioche bread. I have not found it online, in my grocery store, and I didn't see a recipe for it on your website. Can you tell me where I can find vanilla cream brioche bread? Thanks.

It is at walmart! You can use any kind of brioche bread to make this though. I would suggest adding 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extra to your egg mix. I just updated the recipe card with these details. Thank you for your comment!
