Categories     Breakfast

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 slices sandwich bread (high-quality)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup milk
1 large egg, beaten (and then 1 tablespoon removed and discarded)
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon table salt
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and heat the oven to 200 degrees.
  • Arrange the bread on a wire rack set over a baking sheet and bake until slightly dry, about 15 minutes.
  • While the bread is in the oven, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter and whisk it with the milk, egg, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Slowly whisk in the flour until smooth.
  • Pour the batter into a shallow dish large enough to hold 2 slices of bread.
  • Transfer 2 pieces of the bread from the oven into the batter and soak both sides, about 30 seconds per side.
  • Meanwhile, melt 1 more tablespoon of the butter in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until beginning to brown, swirling to coat the pan.
  • Remove the bread from the batter, allowing excess batter to drip back into the dish, and lay it in the hot skillet.
  • Cook until golden brown on both sides, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Adjust heat to prevent from browning too quickly.
  • Transfer the French toast to the wire rack and keep warm in the oven.
  • Repeat with the remaining butter, bread, and batter.

I made this recipe for a special breakfast and it was perfect. The french toast was light and fluffy, and the fruit and whipped cream were the perfect toppings.

I'm not a big fan of french toast, but I made this recipe for my husband and he loved it. He said it was the best french toast he's ever had.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a few more spices to the batter. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract are my favorites.

I've been making french toast for years and this is by far the best recipe I've ever tried. It's so easy to make and the results are amazing.

This recipe was a disaster! The french toast was soggy and bland. I don't recommend it.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The french toast was a bit too eggy for my taste.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it twice now and both times it turned out perfectly. The kids love it too, which is a bonus.

My wife and I tried this recipe for breakfast this morning and it was a hit! The french toast was light and fluffy on the inside, and crispy and golden brown on the outside. The maple syrup and fruit were the perfect finishing touches.
