Ingredients for Best Ever French Toast

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Granulated Sugar
  • 1 cup milk (whole milk recommended)
  • Ginger
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Butter
  • French Bread

How to Make Best Ever French Toast

  1. In a shallow dish, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
  2. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated. Let the bread soak for about 15-20 seconds per side.
  3. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
  4. Cook the French toast for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh berries, whipped cream, or powdered sugar.

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.
