Description
A simple and classic vanilla French toast recipe that combines eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon to create a deliciously flavored breakfast treat. Perfectly golden and easy to make in just 15 minutes, this French toast is a comforting and quick morning meal.
Ingredients
For the Vanilla Batter
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 cup milk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
For the Toast
- 6 slices bread
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined and smooth.
- Dip the Bread: Take each slice of bread and dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated but not overly saturated to avoid sogginess.
- Cook the French Toast: Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it. Place the dipped bread slices onto the skillet and cook each side for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Notes
- Use day-old or slightly stale bread for best results as it absorbs the batter better without falling apart.
- Adjust the cinnamon amount to your preference for a stronger or milder spice flavor.
- Serve with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or powdered sugar for added sweetness and presentation.
- If you prefer a richer flavor, consider using half-and-half or whole milk instead of regular milk.
