How to Make Citrus French Toast
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour (or 1 cup self-rising flour), 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and the zest of 1 orange (or lemon).
- Add 1 1/2 cups milk and whisk until a smooth batter forms, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Whisk in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir in 2 tablespoons melted butter and mix until fully combined.
- Heat a lightly oiled non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Dip slices of bread (challah, brioche, or Texas toast work best) into the batter, ensuring both sides are coated.
- Fry the French toast for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve immediately with honey, maple syrup, or your favorite toppings.
