Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Egg Mixture

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.

2

Soak the Bread

Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side. Ensure the bread is well-coated but not overly soggy.

3

Heat the Pan

In a large skillet or griddle, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to bubble.

4

Cook the French Toast

Place the soaked bread slices onto the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy.

5

Serve

Remove the French toast from the skillet and serve warm with maple syrup and a dusting of powdered sugar.
