Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Bread (thick slices, such as brioche or Texas toast)
- 4 tablespoons Peanut butter (creamy or chunky as desired)
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Butter (for frying)
- to taste Maple syrup (optional, for serving)
- to taste Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Spread 1 tablespoon of peanut butter on one side of each slice of bread. Pair the slices together to form two peanut butter sandwiches.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Preheat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and allow it to melt and coat the pan.
Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated but not oversaturated. Let any excess egg mixture drip off before placing the sandwich onto the skillet.
Cook the sandwiches for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Add the remaining butter to the skillet as needed for greasing.
Remove the peanut butter French toast from the skillet and transfer to serving plates.
Optionally, drizzle with maple syrup and sprinkle with powdered sugar for added sweetness.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Peanut Butter French Toast!
