Ingredients
  

  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tsps vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar (50g)
  • ¾ cup milk (177mL)

Method
 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar until well combined.
  2. Gradually whisk in the milk until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.
  3. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt a small pat of butter in the pan.
  4. Dip one slice of bread at a time into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side.
  5. Transfer the soaked bread to the hot skillet or griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Repeat the process with the remaining slices of bread, adding more butter to the pan as needed.
  7. Serve the French toast warm with your choice of toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.
