- tip:.
- The amount of egg mixture absorbed when making French toast depends upon the bread being used. Soft bread with an open, porous texture will absorb more liquid and absorb it more quickly than drier bread with a fine texture, Once you've dipped the first 1 or 2 slices, you can determine how long to keep the bread in the egg mixture, so you don't run out of the egg mixture.

Steps:
- 1. Blend egg, milk, Vanilla, sugar and cinnamon.
- 2. Dip bread in egg mixture, then in corn flakes
- 3. Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- 4. Brown in skillet until light golden on both sides, turning once.
- 5. Serve with maple syrup and a touch of Confectioners sugar.
Tips:
- Use day old firm bread. Stale bread will soak up more of the egg mixture, resulting in a crispier, less soggy French toast.
- Use a heavy skillet. A cast iron skillet or griddle will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the French toast from sticking.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. Cook the French toast in batches if necessary to avoid steaming them.
- Cook the French toast over medium heat. This will help to prevent the outside from burning before the inside is cooked through.
- Flip the French toast only once. Flipping it too often will make it more likely to break.
- Serve the French toast immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
