Fabulous French Toast Recipe - Cooking Index
An egg bread makes the best French toast. If you can't find challah, try a brioche loaf.
Courses: Breakfast4 | Eggs (large) | |
1/2 cup | 118ml | Whole milk or half-and-half |
1/4 teaspoon | 1.3ml | Pure vanilla extract |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Sugar |
1/4 teaspoon | 1.3ml | Ground cinnamon |
Salt - to taste | ||
3 teaspoons | 15ml | Unsalted butter - more if necessary |
8 | Challah, 1" thick | |
= (or brioche or other egg bread) | ||
Maple syrup and jam - for serving |
Whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a bowl.
Melt a teaspoon of the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Soak 2 slices of bread at a time in the batter for about 1 minute, pressing down on the bread so that it absorbs the batter. Cook in the skillet until golden, about 3 minutes on each side.
Serve immediately with syrup or jam or keep warm, loosely covered with foil, in a 200 degree oven while cooking the remaining slices.
This recipe yields 4 servings.
