1
Prepare the Egg Batter
In a large mixing bowl, crack the 2 eggs and whisk them until well beaten. Add 1 cup of milk, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, 1 tsp of ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth.
2
Dip the Bread
Take each slice of thick bread and dip it into the egg batter. Ensure both sides are coated evenly and allow excess batter to drip off.

3
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat until melted and bubbling.
4
Cook the French Toast
Place the dipped bread slices in the hot skillet. Cook each slice for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
5
Serve
Once cooked, remove the French toast from the skillet and place them on a plate. Serve warm with maple syrup drizzled on top or on the side for dipping.
