One of my favourite breakfast foods to make is French Toast. This is the way I always used to make it: with sugar in the egg mixture so I don’t have to worry about pouring syrup over the toast after it’s none (after all, if I wanted to do that, I’d just make pancakes!). I like to use Villaggio Italian Style White Bread or Dempster’s Thick Slice White Bread. Taste great served with a side of beans (fiber!) and bacon.
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Yield: 6 slices
Ingredients:
6 slices of bread
4 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
Directions:
- In a medium mixing bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and gradually add the sugar until blended.
- Over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter or margarine in a frying pan.
- Soak the sliced bread in the egg mixture until both sides are coated.
- Place the saturated slices of bread onto the frying pan, cooking for 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden-brown.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
