French Toast

Sugar Waffles

Method

French Toast

  1. 1

    Prepare the egg mixture

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

  2. 2

    Soak the bread

    Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side to absorb the mixture.

  3. 3

    Cook the French Toast

    Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Place the soaked bread slices on the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the French toast from the skillet, drizzle with maple syrup, and serve warm.

Sugar Waffles

  1. 5

    Preheat the waffle iron

    Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

  2. 6

    Mix dry ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk until evenly mixed.

  3. 7

    Combine wet ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  4. 8

    Combine mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  5. 9

    Cook the waffles

    Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, using enough to cover the surface. Close the lid and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically for 4-5 minutes, until golden brown.

  6. 10

    Serve

    Remove the waffles from the iron and serve warm, optionally sprinkled with powdered sugar or drizzled with syrup.
