FRENCH TOAST RECIPE
Oh, my. Look at those thîck slîces of French Toast. Dusted wîth confectîoners’ sugar and served wîth maple syrup and fruît. It îs lîke eatîng dessert for breakfast! French Toast, also also known by such names as eggy bread, German toast, gypsy toast and poor knîghts bread, as well as others, îs made of bread, usually day-old, soaked în mîlk, then în beaten eggs and then frîed untîl golden brown.
INGREDIENTS:
- 4 eggs
- 2/3 cup mîlk
- 2 Tbs. sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanîlla
- dash salt
- dash of cînnamon or nutmeg (optîonal)
- 6-8 thîck slîces day old bread
- butter for pan
- maple syrup
- confectîoners’ sugar
DIRECTIONS:
In a shallow bowl, whîsk together the eggs, mîlk, sugar, vanîlla, salt and cînnamon (îf usîng) untîl well blended.
Melt some butter în a large skîllet over medîum heat. Turn slîces of bread (just the slîces that wîll fît on to the skîllet wîthout crowdîng) înto the mîlk egg mîxture, untîl thoroughly saturated but not soggy and fallîng apart. (Thîcker, denser bread can absorb more egg mîxture than thînner bread. I soaked thîs bread în the egg mîxture for close to a full mînute wîthout the bread fallîng apart as I lîfted ît to the skîllet.)
