👩🍳 How to Make Delicious French Toast
Step 1: Prepare the Egg Mixture
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, sugar, and salt until smooth and evenly combined.
Step 2: Dip the Bread
Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, letting it soak for about 10–15 seconds per side. The bread should be well coated but not falling apart.
Step 3: Heat the Pan
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt a tablespoon of butter until it starts to bubble.
Step 4: Cook the French Toast
Place the soaked bread into the pan and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and lightly crisp on the outside.
Step 5: Serve Warm
Transfer to a plate and serve immediately. Keep warm in a low oven while cooking the remaining slices if needed.
