Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs until well combined. Add the milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Whisk together until smooth.

  2. 2

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet or frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Make sure the pan is evenly coated with the melted butter.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Dip the Bread

    Take one slice of thick bread and dip it into the egg mixture. Ensure both sides are well coated but do not soak the bread too long to prevent it from becoming soggy.

  2. 4

    Cook the Bread

    Place the dipped bread slice onto the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Repeat the process for the remaining slices.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve

    Once all slices are cooked, serve them warm on a plate and drizzle with maple syrup to taste.
