Batter

Method

Preparation of Batter

1

Whisk the Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until fully beaten. Add the milk, Grand Marnier, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar. Whisk until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth.

Bread Soaking

2

Soak the Bread

Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Dip each slice of thick-cut bread into the batter, allowing it to soak for about 10 seconds on each side, ensuring that the bread absorbs enough of the mixture without becoming overly soggy.

Cooking

3

Cook the French Toast

Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the skillet. Once melted and sizzling, place the soaked bread slices in the skillet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining bread, adding more butter as needed.

Serving

4

Plate and Garnish

Once cooked, place the French toast on a serving plate. Drizzle with warm maple syrup, dust with powdered sugar, and top with fresh berries if desired. Serve immediately.
