Description
A delightful breakfast dish that combines eggs, milk, and cinnamon soaked into crispy golden-brown bread. Perfect for lazy brunches or quick weekday meals.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices of bread
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Butter for cooking
- Maple syrup for serving
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients. In a medium-sized bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract.
- Whisk the mixture together until well blended, ensuring the eggs and milk are fully incorporated with the cinnamon and vanilla.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a small pat of butter. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are nicely coated.
- Place the coated bread slices onto the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly crispy. Once cooked, transfer the slices to a plate and serve immediately with a drizzle of maple syrup.
Notes
Serve warm with fresh fruits, powdered sugar, or whipped cream. Day-old bread is recommended for better absorption of the egg mixture.
