Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Thick-sliced bread (brioche or challah recommended)
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 0.5 cups Whole milk
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (for cooking)
- Maple syrup (for serving)
- 0.5 cups Fresh berries (blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries)
- Powdered sugar (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, letting it melt and coat the skillet.
Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well soaked but not overly saturated.
Place the soaked bread slices onto the preheated skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly crispy.
Repeat with the remaining bread slices, adding the second tablespoon of butter to the skillet if needed.
Transfer the cooked French toast to serving plates and top with fresh berries.
Drizzle generously with maple syrup and dust with powdered sugar if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy!
