Method

Preparation of Egg Mixture

  1. 1

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, crack the 2 large eggs and whisk them until well-beaten. Add 1 cup of milk, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, 1 tsp of ground cinnamon, and 2 tbs of sugar to the eggs. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth.

Cooking the French Toast

  1. 2

    Heat the Pan

    Place a non-stick skillet or griddle on medium heat. Allow it to warm up for a few minutes.

  2. 3

    Dip the Bread

    Take each slice of thick-sliced bread and dip it into the egg mixture. Make sure to coat each side evenly, allowing the excess mixture to drip off.

  3. 4

    Cook the Bread

    Once the skillet is hot, lightly grease it with butter or oil. Place the dipped slices of bread onto the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve the French Toast

    Once cooked, remove the French toast from the skillet. Serve immediately with maple syrup, a dusting of powdered sugar, and fresh berries if desired.
