Raisin Bread French Toast

• portions: 4 servings
• temps actif: 10 minutes
• temps total: 20 minutes

Ingrédients

2 large eggs

1/4 cup milk

1/2 teaspoon quality vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

4-6 slices raisin bread (I use six slices because the loaf I buy is small sized)

butter (- for cooking)

maple syrup

a dollop whipped cream

a dash ground cinnamon

Instructions

In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, vanilla and cinnamon. Transfer the egg mixture to a wide bowl (like a pasta bowl), so you can dip the bread slices.

Preheat a nonstick skillet on medium to medium-high heat. TIP: To make French toast quick, a square skillet is very handy because it can make 4 slices at once, and the low edges of the pan make it easy to flip.

Drop a knob of butter on the hot skillet. Working one slice at a time, dip each slice for about 20 seconds, and flip and allow to soak for another 10 seconds.

Place the egg dipped bread on the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes, until the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook an additional 2 minutes on the other side, until the French toast feels slightly firm to the touch and the bottom is golden brown. Adjust the heat as necessary so the French toast gets cooked through before the outsides burn.

Serve immediately with maple syrup, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and a dollop of whipped cream.
