How to Make Louisiana Style French Toast Or Pain Perdu
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
- 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, allowing it to absorb the custard.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. If not using a nonstick pan, lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Cook the French toast for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. The sugar will caramelize, creating a beautiful crust.
- Serve immediately, optionally topped with powdered sugar, maple syrup, fresh berries, or whipped cream. Enjoy your taste of Louisiana!
