Slice Brioche into 1½ inch thick slices. Set aside.

Pre-heat your oven to 200 degrees.

Pre-heat your waffle iron.

Whisk together the milk, eggs, salt, vanilla extract, and maple syrup (if using). Dip each slice into the mixture for 2-3 seconds on both sides and then transfer it to a baking sheet.

Spray the waffle iron with vegetable spray. Cook each slice in your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Make sure to spray again after each slice to prevent bread from sticking.

Transfer cooked waffles onto a rimmed baking sheet and keep them warm in the oven as you cook the rest of the slices.

To serve: Top them off with chopped fruit. Drizzle them with maple syrup. If preferred, sprinkle it with some confectioners’ sugar.
