Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Thick-cut bread slices
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Begin by preparing your work area. Gather all ingredients and ensure your bread slices are thick-cut to absorb the buttery milk mixture nicely.
2. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
3. While the skillet is warming up, butter each side of the bread slices generously using 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter for each slice.
4. Place the buttered bread slices onto the hot skillet and toast for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust heat as necessary to avoid burning.
5. While the bread is toasting, heat the whole milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
6. Once the milk is warm (not boiling), stir in the granulated sugar and vanilla extract until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat.
7. Arrange the toasted bread slices on a plate and pour the warm sweetened milk over them. Let the bread soak for 1-2 minutes if you prefer a softer texture, or serve immediately for a crisper version.
8. Optionally, sprinkle ground cinnamon over the toasts for added flavor and visual appeal.
9. Serve hot and enjoy this classic, buttery, sweet treat with a cozy beverage like tea or coffee.
