Ingredients
- 6 slices sourdough bread
- 4 units large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 optional maple syrup or powdered sugar, for serving
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Step 2
Place the sourdough slices in a shallow dish large enough to hold them in a single layer.
Step 3
Pour the egg mixture over the sourdough slices, ensuring each slice is thoroughly soaked. Let them sit for 5 minutes, then turn them over to soak the other side for another 5 minutes.
Step 4
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter, letting it melt and coat the pan evenly.
Step 5
Once the butter is sizzling, carefully transfer the soaked sourdough slices to the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Step 6
Cook the slices for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Step 7
Transfer the cooked French toast to a plate and repeat with the remaining slices, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Step 8
Serve the sourdough French toast warm, with maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
