Description:
French toast is a breakfast classic that brings comfort and warmth to your morning. Coated with cinnamon sugar and served with syrup, this dish is both indulgent and satisfying. It’s perfect for lazy mornings or special occasions like holidays or family brunches.
Ingredients:
- 2 slices of thick bread (sourdough or brioche works well)
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp sugar
- Butter for cooking
Instructions:
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and milk.
- Mix the cinnamon and sugar in a separate bowl.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and melt a small amount of butter.
- Dip the bread slices into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated.
- Cook the bread slices in the pan for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Once cooked, remove from the pan and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top.
Serving Suggestions:
- Serve with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a drizzle of maple syrup for extra sweetness.
- A side of bacon or sausage pairs nicely for a more filling meal.
Tips:
- Use day-old bread for the best texture; it soaks up the egg mixture better than fresh bread.
- For a healthier version, use whole-grain bread and reduce the sugar in the cinnamon mixture.
