How to Make Extra Crispy French Toast

  1. In a shallow dish, whisk together 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  2. Add 2 large eggs and 1/2 cup milk to the dry ingredients. Whisk until just combined; don't overmix.
  3. Heat 1/4 inch of canola oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. The oil is ready when a small piece of bread dropped in sizzles gently.
  4. Adjust heat as needed to maintain a consistent temperature; avoid smoking.
  5. Dip each slice of Texas toast into the batter for 30-45 seconds per side, allowing excess batter to drip off.
  6. Carefully place the bread slices in the hot oil and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  7. Remove the french toast from the skillet and place on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  8. Dust generously with powdered sugar.
  9. Serve immediately with butter and warm syrup.
