Ingredients
- 6 slices Thick-cut bread (such as brioche or challah)
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional, for topping)
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sugar until well combined.
Step 2
Preheat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
Step 3
Dip each slice of bread into the buttermilk mixture, making sure to coat both sides thoroughly. Let the excess drip off before placing the bread in the skillet.
Step 4
Cook the bread for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
Step 5
Repeat with the remaining slices of bread, adding more butter to the skillet as necessary.
Step 6
Serve the French toast warm, dusted with powdered sugar and drizzled with maple syrup, if desired.
