1
Prepare the Egg Mixture
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sugar until well combined and smooth.
2
Prepare the Bread
Take the thick-sliced bread and set it aside on a plate or cutting board to get ready for dipping.

3
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet or frying pan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat until it bubbles but does not brown.
4
Dip the Bread
Take a slice of bread, dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated, then allow any excess to drip off.
5
Cook the French Toast
Place the coated bread slice in the hot skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining slices, adding more butter as needed.
6
Serve
Once cooked, serve the French toast warm, topped with maple syrup and a dusting of powdered sugar, if desired.
