Make the egg mixture by whisking together 4 eggs, a pinch of salt, a pinch of sugar, and a pinch of cinnamon with a fork.

Cut stale bri bread diagonally into pieces.

Dip the bread pieces into the egg mixture and place them in a preheated pan with vegetable oil.

Cook the bread on medium low heat until the egg mixture cooks through and forms a crust.

Remove the cooked bread and place it on a wire rack and kitchen towels.

Add 50-100 ml of cream to the remaining egg mixture and whisk together.

Dip the bread into the cream mixture and cook in the pan, noting they will take longer to cook.

Serve the French toast with cheese, honey, and blueberry jam.
