Ingredients
- 6 slices Thick-sliced bread (brioche or challah recommended)
- 3 Large eggs
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 1 cup Pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
- 1 cup Fresh fruit (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Step 2
Transfer the mixture to a shallow dish or pie pan to make dipping the bread easier.
Step 3
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter, allowing it to melt completely.
Step 4
Dip one slice of bread into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are evenly coated but not overly saturated.
Step 5
Place the coated bread slice onto the hot skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining slices, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Step 6
Serve the French toast warm, drizzled with pure maple syrup and optionally garnished with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and fresh fruit.
