Ingredients
2 large eggs
1 cup milk or half and half, or dairy-free alternatives such as coconut milk or almond milk
A pinch of salt
1 tablespoon granulated sugar, honey, or maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
8 slices of bread (options include sandwich bread, challah, sourdough, brioche, Texas Toast, French Bread, or Sally Lunn bread)
Butter [for cooking and serving]
Real maple syrup or fruit syrup [for serving]
Instructions
1-Start by whisking together the eggs, milk, salt, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon in a shallow dish to create a smooth mixture.
2-Next, dip each slice of bread briefly on both sides into the egg mixture, making sure not to soak it too long to avoid sogginess. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat, melt some butter, and cook the bread slices for 2 to 3 minutes per side until they turn golden brown. Serve right away with syrup and add-ons like fresh berries for an extra touch.
3-Gather all ingredients and whisk them in a shallow dish for even mixing.
4-Heat your skillet and add butter to prevent sticking and add flavor.
5-Dip and cook each slice carefully to get that perfect golden crust.
6-Adjust heat as needed to keep things even, and plate with your favorite toppings.
