Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 slices thick-sliced bread
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter for cooking
For Serving (Optional)
  • maple syrup to taste
  • fresh berries for garnish
  • powdered sugar for dusting

Equipment

  • shallow dish
  • whisk
  • non-stick skillet
  • griddle (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined and frothy.
Cooking
  1. Melt one tablespoon of butter in a large non-stick skillet or on a griddle over medium heat.
  2. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated but not oversaturated.
  3. Place the coated bread slices onto the hot skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. Repeat with the remaining butter and bread slices, adjusting heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Serving
  1. Serve the French toast immediately, topped with your favorite maple syrup, fresh berries, and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.

Notes

For an extra rich flavor, use challah or brioche bread. You can also add a pinch of nutmeg to the egg mixture for additional warmth.
