French toast is just one of those things that I love to eat whenever we go out for breakfast….or in for that matter it’s an easy and simple choice. Now every once in a while I like to jazz it up with nuts of different flavorings and extracts, I’ve used all kinds of different breads and mixes, this recipe is none of that! Just easy and simple.
French toast is one of those things that you can’t really mess up. Unless you burn it and even then it can still be enjoyed…as long as it’s not completely smoking black! This recipe is an easy, which is why I call it country, no fancy bread or unique ingredients everything you need is surely already in your kitchen and if not, you probably need to go grocery shopping. Yep, country and simple much like me, here’s all you need…..
4 Slices bread
1/2 cup Half & Half
1 Egg
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
1 teaspoon flour
2 Tablespoon Sugar
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Slice bread into rectangular strips. Mix together your milk, egg, cinnamon, sugar and vanilla. Dip your bread into the mix, coating both sides. Add butter to hot skillet and cook toast for about 2 minutes on both sides. Voila!
[…] Of course you need to start with a good recipe. Play around a bit with ingredients to find the perfect mix for you. I enjoy my french toast creamy, light, and airy on the inside with a crisp and buttery exterior. Alton Brown has a good mix that is not too eggy and made with heavy cream which is a lot like the way I prepare mines. I also have an easy recipe which is perfect if you’re making french toast for the first time. No fancy ingredients just the basics. Get the Alton Brown recipe here.
