How to Make Bertha S French Toast

  1. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and brown sugar until well combined.
  2. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated and soaked (about 15-20 seconds per side).
  3. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Place bread slices on the hot griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
  5. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, whipped cream, maple syrup, or powdered sugar.
  6. Enjoy your delicious and easy French toast!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
