Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Egg Batter

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

  2. 2

    Dip the Bread

    Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, dip each slice of bread into the egg batter, ensuring both sides are coated.

  3. 3

    Cook the French Toast

    Place the dipped bread slices onto the hot skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the French toast from the skillet and serve hot with maple syrup drizzled on top.
