Directions
Prepare the Mixture
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
Soak the Bread
Dip each slice of Italian bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side.
Cook the French Toast
In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the soaked bread slices and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Add more butter as needed for subsequent batches.
Serve
Serve the French toast warm, dusted with powdered sugar, and topped with fresh fruit and maple syrup.
