All Hail the Humble French Toast: A Breakfast Blog

 

French Toast recipe 

Ingredients:

• 2 large eggs
• ⅔ cup milk
• ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
• 1 tbsp sugar 
• 6 thick slices of bread (challah, brioche, or Texas toast work well)
• 1 tablespoon butter or ghee

Instructions:

 In a shallow bowl or dish, whisk together the eggs and sugar and then pour milk inside to make a mixture.

Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add the butter/ghee and swirl to coat the pan.

One by one, dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, letting it soak for a few seconds on each side.Don't oversaturate, or the bread will become soggy.

Carefully transfer the soaked bread to the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Serve your French toast hot with melted butter or some fruit or honey on top of it.
