Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices of bread (white, whole wheat, or brioche)
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup milk (whole, almond, or oat milk)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
- 1 tbsp sugar (optional)
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tbsp butter (for cooking)
- Maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh fruits (for serving)
Instructions
- Prepare the batter: In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, sugar, and salt until well combined.
- Dip the bread: Heat a pan or griddle over medium heat and add butter. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides without soaking too much.
- Cook the toast: Place the soaked bread onto the hot pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve and enjoy: Remove from heat and serve immediately with syrup, fresh fruits, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, cook on medium-low heat for a longer time.
- Make it dairy-free by using almond, soy, or oat milk.
