Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 0.5 cups Whole milk
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 6 slices Thick bread (e.g., brioche or challah)
- 2 tablespoons Butter (for greasing the waffle iron)
- optional Maple syrup (for serving)
- optional Powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, sugar, and salt until fully combined.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Dip one slice of bread at a time into the egg mixture, making sure it is evenly coated but not overly saturated.
Grease the waffle iron with a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.
Place the coated bread in the waffle iron and close the lid gently (do not press too hard). Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Carefully remove the waffled French toast and repeat the process with the remaining slices of bread, re-greasing the waffle iron as needed.
Serve immediately with maple syrup and a dusting of powdered sugar, if desired.
