French Toast Recipe

Whisk the Mixture

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Prepare the Bread

Take the slices of bread and set them aside. If using thicker bread like brioche or challah, you may want to cut the slices slightly thicker for a more indulgent French Toast.

Heat the Pan

In a large skillet or griddle, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam but does not brown.

Dip the Bread

Take one slice of bread and dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated. Allow any excess mixture to drip off before placing it in the skillet.

Cook the Toast

Cook the bread for about 2-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy. Flip carefully with a spatula.

Repeat

Repeat the dipping and cooking process with the remaining slices of bread, adding more butter to the skillet as necessary.

Plate the French Toast

Once all slices are cooked, plate them and drizzle with maple syrup and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.

Serve Hot

Serve the French Toast warm, and enjoy with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, whipped cream, or additional syrup.
