Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sugar until well combined and frothy.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Bread

    Take the thick slices of bread and set them aside on a plate or cutting board for dipping.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet or frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat until it starts to bubble.

  2. 4

    Dip the Bread

    Take one slice of bread and dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated well. Allow any excess mixture to drip off.

  3. 5

    Cook the French Toast

    Place the coated slice of bread onto the heated skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown, then flip and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes.

  4. 6

    Repeat

    Repeat the dipping and cooking process with the remaining slices of bread, adding more butter to the pan as needed.

  5. 7

    Serve

    Once all slices are cooked, serve warm with maple syrup and a dusting of powdered sugar on top if desired.
