Ingredients

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
- 4 slices sliced whole-grain or sourdough bread
- 1 tablespoon butter or cooking spray (for greasing the pan)

Directions
Step 1
In a shallow bowl or wide dish, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, honey (if using), and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Step 2
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or cooking spray.
Step 3
Dip a slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for about 5-10 seconds per side. Ensure it is coated but not overly saturated.
Step 4
Place the soaked bread onto the preheated skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy.
Step 5
Repeat with the remaining slices of bread, adding more butter or cooking spray to the skillet as needed.
Step 6
Serve the French toast warm, topped with fresh fruit, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a light dusting of powdered sugar. Enjoy immediately!
