Ingredients

• 3 pieces Eggs
• 120 ml Milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 pinch Salt
• 6 pieces Sliced bread
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 0 Maple syrup (optional, for serving)
• 0 Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
• 0 Fresh fruit (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well-beaten.

Step 2

Add the milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to the eggs, whisking until fully combined.

Step 3

Preheat a large skillet or non-stick frying pan over medium heat.

Step 4

Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet and let it melt, swirling to coat the surface of the pan.

Step 5

Dip one slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated but not soggy. Allow any excess mixture to drip off.

Step 6

Place the coated bread slice onto the preheated skillet. Repeat the process with as many slices as can comfortably fit in the skillet without overlapping.

Step 7

Cook each slice for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and slightly crisp on the edges. Transfer cooked slices to a plate and keep warm.

Step 8

Repeat the dipping and cooking process with the remaining bread slices, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.

Step 9

Serve the French toast warm, topped with maple syrup, a dusting of powdered sugar, and fresh fruit, if desired.
