Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well beaten. Add the milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a tablespoon of butter and let it melt, coating the surface of the skillet.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Dip the Bread

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

  2. 4

    Grill the French Toast

    Place the dipped bread slices onto the preheated skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Add more butter to the skillet as needed for cooking.

Serving

  1. 5

    Plate and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the French toast from the skillet and place on plates. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and drizzle with maple syrup. Serve immediately.
