Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 slices of bread
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup vanilla creamer
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Butter for frying
- Maple syrup for serving
Instructions
- In a large, shallow mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, vanilla creamer, and ground cinnamon until thoroughly combined and smooth.
- Prepare a large non-stick skillet or griddle by heating it over medium heat and adding a pat of butter to coat the cooking surface.
- Take each slice of bread and carefully dip it into the egg and creamer mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated but not soaked through. Allow excess liquid to drip off.
- Place the coated bread slice onto the heated, buttered skillet and cook for approximately 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Watch the heat carefully to prevent burning, adjusting temperature as needed to achieve an even, golden-brown color.
- Once cooked, transfer French toast to a serving plate and repeat the process with remaining bread slices, adding more butter to the pan as needed.
- Serve immediately while warm, drizzling with maple syrup and optionally garnishing with a light dusting of additional cinnamon.
Tips
- Choose the Right Bread: Use slightly stale bread (1-2 days old) as it absorbs the egg mixture better without falling apart.
- Don't Oversoak: Quickly dip bread in the mixture – you want it coated, not drowning. Excess liquid can make your French toast soggy.
- Use Medium Heat: Too high, and you'll burn the outside; too low, and it won't crisp up. Find that perfect golden-brown sweet spot.
- Fresh Butter is Key: Use real butter and add a fresh pat between each batch for the most delicious, crispy edges.
- Serve Immediately: French toast is best enjoyed hot and fresh off the skillet, so time your cooking to serve right away.Pro Hack: For extra richness, use heavy cream or half-and-half in place of some of the vanilla creamer for an even more indulgent texture!
