Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Egg Mixture

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Bread

    Take the thick slices of bread and set them aside. You can use any bread of your choice, such as brioche or challah, for a richer flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet or griddle, melt the butter over medium heat. Ensure the butter coats the bottom of the pan evenly.

  2. 4

    Dip the Bread

    One by one, dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side. Make sure the bread absorbs enough mixture but is not overly soggy.

  3. 5

    Cook the French Toast

    Place the soaked slices of bread onto the hot skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan; you may need to cook in batches.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate and Top

    Once cooked, remove the French toast from the skillet and place on a plate. Top with maple syrup, powdered sugar, and fresh fruits as desired.

  2. 7

    Enjoy!

    Serve warm and enjoy your delicious French toast breakfast!
