Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Thick-cut bread (brioche, challah, or sourdough)
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- optional Maple syrup (for serving)
- optional Fresh berries (for serving)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until smooth and well combined.
Pour the yogurt mixture into a shallow dish or pie pan to make dipping the bread easier.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, letting it melt and coat the surface.
Dip one slice of bread into the yogurt mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated but not overly soaked. Let any excess drip off.
Place the coated bread slice onto the heated skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
Repeat with the remaining slices of bread, adding more butter to the skillet as necessary.
Serve the yogurt French toast warm, topped with maple syrup, fresh berries, or any toppings of your choice.
