French Toasts are a staple at home. I make it almost every day and especially on the weekend for breakfast or brunch. This recipe is a classic. The ingredients are a few but you can add more like sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla depending on how you like it. I serve these tasty French Toast with a drizzle of maple syrup but feel free to get creative. Throw in some fruits or enjoy with a scoop of vanilla ice cream like my kids do.
INGREDIENTS
3 eggs
1 c. Milk see notes
2 teaspoons Sugar optional
1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon optional
1 teaspoon Vanilla Essence optional
8 Slices Bread see notes
Butter for frying
How to make French Toast
Step 1: In a mixing bowl, add the eggs and milk (at this point you can sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla, if using). Mix well until combined.
Step 2: Melt half tsp butter in a medium-sized fry pan over medium heat.
Step 3: In the egg mixture, dip two slices of bread for about 30 seconds. Flip and dip the other side for another 30 seconds.
Step 4: In the frying pan, add the slices of bread and cook over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes per side. Make sure to check every a couple of minutes to ensure that the french toast is not burning.
Step 5: When the centre of the toast springs back once pressed, the French toast is cooked through. Do this for the rest of the bread slices.
Step 6: Before serving, drizzle with maple syrup. Enjoy!
NOTES:
sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla are optional ingredients depending on how you like your french toast.
You can use any kind of bread for this recipe. I used about an inch or 2 to 3 cm slices of bread.
For the bread, using more stale and dry bread the more it can soak up the custard mixture.
