I love French toast, but it’s not something I make all too often. My husband had bought a loaf of artisan French bread for $0.99 at Safeway, one of our Just for U personalized deals on our Club Card. Usually, we just have the bread with butter with our dinner, but since I have the new electric griddle, I decided to try it out making French toast today. It was perfect to get all the slices on at once and to cook them all evenly:
It’s been a while since I’ve made French toast, so I looked up a few recipes and came up with this combination. I put a little powdered sugar on top, and served it with cut strawberries and bananas. My older daughter thought it was beautiful! And delicious.
Cinnamon French Toast
What you need:
8 slices of bread, preferably French bread cut 1/2″ – 1″ thick
1 cup milk or half and half
3 large eggs
2 tablespoons honey, warmed in microwave about 20 seconds
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
How to make it:
In a bowl, whisk together, milk, eggs, honey, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Pour mixture into a pie pan.
Dip each slice of bread in the mixture, allowing both sides of bread to soak for a few seconds. Place each slice in a skillet or on an electric griddle and cook until golden brown on each side, about 2-3 minutes for each side. Serve with powdered sugar, syrup, and fresh fruit, if desired.
