Enjoying French Toast Recipe

 

• Prep time: 5 minutes
• Cook time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

• 4 eggs
• 2/3 cup milk
• 2 teaspoons of cinnamon
• 8 thick slices of 2-day-old bread, better if slightly stale
• Butter
• Maple syrup

Optional

• 2 teaspoons freshly grated orange zest
• 1/4 cup Triple Sec
• Fresh berries

Method

1 Beat eggs, milk, and cinnamon together. If using, add orange zest and/or Triple Sec. Whisk until well blended. Pour into a shallow bowl.
2 Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing bread to soak up some of the mixture. Melt some butter (or use vegetable oil) over a large skillet on medium high heat. Add as many slices of bread onto the skillet as will fit at a time. Fry until brown on both sides, flipping the bread when necessary.
3 Serve hot with butter, maple syrup, and if available, fresh berries.
Serves 4.
