French Toast
A classic breakfast dish made by soaking bread in an egg and milk mixture, then frying it until golden brown. Perfect for a quick and delicious start to your day or a cozy brunch.
Ingredients
For the French Toast
- 4 slices slices of bread Thicker slices work best, such as brioche or challah.
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon Optional.
- Butter or oil for frying
For serving
- Maple syrup or powdered sugar For topping.
Instructions
Preparation
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a little butter or oil.
Cooking
- Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side.
- Place the soaked bread slices in the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Repeat with the remaining slices, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.
Serving
- Serve warm with your choice of toppings like maple syrup, fresh fruit, powdered sugar, or whipped cream.
Notes
Use stale or day-old bread for better absorption. Adjust the heat to prevent burning while achieving a golden color.
