Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 4 slices Bread
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Chopped parsley (optional)
Instructions
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Let it melt and coat the bottom of the skillet.
Dip one slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated but not overly soaked. Lift it out to allow any excess egg to drip off.
Carefully place the coated bread slice into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
Flip the bread and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until golden and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining slices, adding the second tablespoon of butter to the skillet as needed between batches.
Once all the slices are cooked, serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with chopped parsley for added flavor and presentation.
