Method

Preparation of Egg Mixture

  1. 1

    Mix the Egg Mixture

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

Cooking the French Toast

  1. 2

    Heat the Pan

    Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. You can add a little butter or oil to the surface for added flavor and to prevent sticking.

  2. 3

    Dip the Bread

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

  3. 4

    Cook the Bread

    Place the coated bread slice onto the heated skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side.

  4. 5

    Repeat

    Repeat the dipping and cooking process for the remaining slices of bread.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the French Toast

    Once all slices are cooked, place them on a serving plate. Drizzle with maple syrup and top with whipped cream according to taste.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your delicious French toast!
