🍞 French Toast
French toast is a sweet, comforting breakfast that’s crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and perfect for syrup, fruit, or powdered sugar.
🧾 Ingredients (Serves 2–3)
- 4 slices bread (thick-cut like brioche or Texas toast works best)
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
- Butter or oil for cooking
- Toppings: syrup, powdered sugar, fresh fruit
👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Make the egg mixture
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon.
2️⃣ Dip the bread
- Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are coated.
- Let it soak for a few seconds if using thick bread.
3️⃣ Cook the French toast
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Add butter or oil and cook each slice 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown.
4️⃣ Serve
- Serve warm with syrup, powdered sugar, fresh berries, or any toppings you like.
🍽️ Tips
- Stale or day-old bread works best—it soaks up the egg mixture without falling apart.
- For extra richness, use half-and-half instead of milk.
- Add a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of orange juice for a flavor twist.
