Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until fully combined.

  2. 2

    Soak the Bread

    Dip each slice of French bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated. Let them soak for a minute to absorb the mixture.

  3. 3

    Cook the Bread

    In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Place the soaked bread slices in the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Once cooked, serve the pain perdu warm, drizzled with maple syrup and dusted with powdered sugar.
