Ingredients

Scale

4 slices of bread (preferably thick-cut, like brioche or challah)
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon butter (for cooking)
Maple syrup (for serving)
Powdered sugar (for serving, optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Your Batter Begin by gathering fresh eggs in a mixing bowl. Crack them open with care, letting them slip into the bowl without shells. Add milk to enhance the flavor and texture; whole milk will give you a richer flavor, while skim or plant-based varieties can work too. Finish it off with vanilla extract for that signature breakfast aroma. Whisk until blended until you see no hints of egg white left, creating a smooth base that will coat your bread beautifully. Step 2: Flavor with Cinnamon Introduce a delightful hint of ground cinnamon. This spice not only adds flavor but also creates an enticing aroma that fills your kitchen. A teaspoon should suffice, but feel free to adjust according to your taste. Stir it in thoroughly so that the cinnamon weaves its way through your batter, making sure that every slice packs a punch of flavor. Step 3: Dip the Bread As you heat your skillet, prepare your bread. Cut thick slices, about an inch or so. Take a slice, dip it into the batter, letting it sit for a few moments to absorb the mixture. You want the bread to soak just enough to become tender without falling apart. Shake off any excess batter before placing it onto the skillet. Step 4: Cook to Perfection Place your prepared slices carefully into the skillet, avoiding overcrowding to ensure even cooking. The butter should bubble gently. Keep the heat manageable; too high, and you risk burning the toast before it’s cooked through. As you flip the toast, observe its transformation into a beautifully golden shade—this is what makes your Morning Delight truly special. Step 5: Serve with Style Finally, present your masterpiece! Plate your golden French toast and embellish it with any toppings that tempt your taste buds. Real maple syrup adds a rich sweetness, while berries offer freshness and a slight tartness to balance the meal. For an indulgent twist, why not add a dollop of whipped cream? This is your chance to impress!

Notes

Serving Suggestion

Pair your Morning Delight with a side of crispy bacon or breakfast sausage for a savory complement.

Make-Ahead Tip

If you’re planning a brunch gathering, you can prepare the batter ahead of time and refrigerate it. Just give it a good whisk again before dipping your bread.
