The Best French Toast

Serves: 3-4

Ingredients:

  • 8 slices high-quality white sandwich bread or Italian loaf bread
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions:

Preheat the oven:

  • Set the oven rack to the middle position.
  • Preheat the oven to 200°F.

Prepare the bread:

  • Arrange the bread slices on a wire rack set over a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the oven until slightly dried, about 15 minutes.

Make the batter:

  • While the bread is drying, melt 2 tablespoons of butter.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, egg, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Slowly whisk in the flour until smooth.
  • Pour the mixture into a large, shallow dish (a Pyrex pie plate works well).

Cook the French toast:

  • Heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of the remaining butter and heat until it just begins to brown.
  • Lightly whisk the egg mixture again.
  • Soak 2 pieces of bread in the mixture for about 15 seconds per side.
  • Allow excess mixture to drip back into the dish, then place the soaked bread in the heated skillet.
  • Cook until golden brown on both sides, about 2 1/2 minutes per side.
  • Repeat with the remaining butter and bread slices.

Serve:

  • Serve the French toast warm. Enjoy!
