Ingredients
Scale
12 thick slices day-old bread (any bread will do, brioche is great but white bread is fine!)

1/4 cup heavy cream
2 Earl Grey tea bags
3 large eggs
3 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Butter for cooking
Instructions
Heat milk and cream until warm (not boiling). Add tea bags and steep for 5-7 minutes. Remove bags, add honey, and mix until dissolved. Let mixture cool completely.
Whisk cooled honey-tea-infused milk mixture with eggs, vanilla, and salt.
Soak bread slices in custard mixture for 30 seconds per side.
Cook in buttered skillet over medium-low heat until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Drizzle with extra honey, or sprinkle with orange zest to garnish.
