How long to soak a French toast?

Why is my French toast so eggy?
Ironically, you may be adding too much milk or too few eggs. Since the eggs and milk mixture are essential (along the honey and vanilla extract) to that “custardy” base that gives the Crispy Brioche French Toast it’s richness and tenderness, you’ve got to respect the recipe’s quantities. Otherwise, the the mixture itself and the flavor will be off when cooking the Brioche French toast (unless you want to end up with a sweet toast with scrambled eggs).
