So classic, so sweet, and so perfectly decadent... this soul-satisfying French Toast Recipe will nourish your cravings the best way possible. With just 6 simple ingredients and hardly any effort, this brunch favorite comes together in a snap!
Servings: 14 slices
Ingredients
- 1 cup Milk
- 4 large Eggs (lightly beaten)
- 1 tbsp Sugar
- 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 14 slices Bread
Instructions
- Gather your ingredients.
- In large bowl, whisk together Milk, Eggs, Sugar, Cinnamon, and Vanilla until well combined.
- Preheat skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once skillet is hot, spray with nonstick cooking spray or drizzle with butter.
- Dip slices of bread into batter, coating them well on each side, then transfer to hot skillet.
- Cook for 2 -4 minutes, or until bread begins to turn golden brown on the bottom, then flip and continue to cook on the other side until golden brown.
- Remove from skillet once done, serve hot, and ENJOY with your choice of delicious toppings... like powdered sugar sprinkles, flavored butter, maple syrup, etc.
- How to Keep French Toast Warm: Once you've cooked some of your French Toast (and are waiting for the rest to finish cooking) you can keep the cooked slices warm by placing them on a cookie sheet in the oven at 200 degrees.
- Freezing Instructions: Once French Toast slices have cooled completely, transfer to a gallon sized freezer bag or freezer safe glass container, and freeze up to 2 months. Frozen French Toast can be thawed overnight in the refrigerator or microwaved, then toasted back up again in the toaster or on a skillet.
