Cut brioche bread into slices, as thick or thin as desired.

In a bowl, combine 2% milk or heavy whipping cream, eggs, white sugar, brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.

Dip the slices of brioche bread into the egg mixture, ensuring they are saturated, especially if thick.

Heat Irish butter in a skillet over medium to low heat until melted.

Place the soaked brioche bread in the skillet and cook until golden brown, flipping as needed to achieve desired crispiness.

In a separate pan, cook eggs sunny side up or scrambled, according to preference.

Sprinkle powdered sugar on top and drizzle with maple syrup before serving.
