Ingredients
1. Day-old bread (challah, brioche etc) – Around 5 slices, 1/2- 3/4 inch thick (Please don’t use fresh bread. You can also use regular whole wheat / white bread but challah, brioche or cinnamon-raisin bread works best for French toast)
2. Eggs – 3
Whole milk – 3/4 cup (You can replace it with heavy cream)
Sugar – 2 - 2.5 tbsp
Vanilla extract – 1/2 – 3/4 tsp
Cinnamon powder – 1/4 – 1/2 tsp
Salt – tiny pinch
3. Butter – 2 – 3 tbsp
4. Maple syrup, whipped cream, fresh fruits, powdered sugar, honey, butter etc – To serve
Method
1. Whisk the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon powder and salt. Pour into a wide plate.
2. Heat a skillet at medium-low heat. Melt 1/2 – 1 tsp butter in the skillet. Dip a bread slice in the egg mixture for about 5 – 10 seconds on each side and place on the skillet. Fry the bread slices until browned, about 4 minutes on each side. Repeat with the remaining bread slices. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and enjoy with maple syrup and fruits on the side.
Hi Maya,
Can you do a stuffed version of the french toast? I’ve seen them on menus on IHOP and have always wanted to try out. Thanks!
Sure, will post it sometime..
Tried this today for our breakfast and came out good. I didn’t have whole milk\ heavy cream so substituted with 1/4c vanilla Greek yoghurt and 1/2 c low fat milk. Still its was really tasty…!!
