Ingredients
- 4 slices sliced bread
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cups milk
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0 for serving maple syrup (optional)
- 0 for garnish powdered sugar (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a shallow bowl or pie dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sugar until fully combined.
Step 2
Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and let it melt, ensuring the pan is evenly coated.
Step 3
Dip one slice of bread into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are well coated but not overly saturated.
Step 4
Carefully place the coated slice onto the preheated skillet. Repeat with additional slices, cooking as many as can comfortably fit without overcrowding.
Step 5
Cook each slice for 2 to 3 minutes on one side, or until golden brown. Flip and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes on the other side.
Step 6
Transfer the cooked French Toast to a serving plate and cover lightly with foil to keep warm. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet if needed and repeat with the remaining slices of bread.
Step 7
Serve warm with maple syrup and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
