Ingredients
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 4 slices Thick Slices of Bread (Brioche or Challah preferred)
- 0.25 cup Maple Syrup
- 1 tablespoon Powdered Sugar (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 cup Fresh Berries (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until fully combined.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet or non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Step 3
Dip one slice of bread at a time into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak on each side for about 5 seconds. Make sure the bread absorbs the mixture but does not become overly soggy.
Step 4
Place the soaked bread slices onto the preheated skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and lightly crisp around the edges.
Step 5
Repeat the process with the remaining bread slices, adding more butter to the skillet if necessary.
Step 6
Serve the French toast warm, drizzled with maple syrup and a sprinkle of powdered sugar. Add fresh berries on top for extra flavor and presentation, if desired.
