Ingredients

• 6 large Eggs
• 1.5 cups Milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 12 slices Thick-sliced bread (e.g., brioche or Texas toast)
• 2 tablespoons Butter (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Preheat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with a small amount of butter.

Step 3

Dip one slice of bread at a time into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated. Allow any excess mixture to drip off before placing the bread onto the skillet.

Step 4

Cook the bread slices for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Repeat this process with the remaining bread slices, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.

Step 5

Allow the cooked French toast slices to cool completely on a wire rack to prevent them from becoming soggy during freezing.

Step 6

Once cooled, place the French toast slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for 1-2 hours, or until the slices are firm.

Step 7

Transfer the frozen slices to a resealable freezer-safe bag or airtight container, separating each slice with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Step 8

To reheat, microwave a slice for 30-60 seconds or toast it in a toaster oven until heated through. Serve with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, fresh fruit, or powdered sugar.
