Make classic, fluffy French toast quickly using this simple recipe. This method yields a golden exterior and a custardy center every time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 slices thick bread (like challah or brioche)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar until well combined.
  2. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add half of the butter or oil.
  3. Dip one slice of bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides evenly. Do not let it soak too long; a quick dip is enough.
  4. Place the coated bread onto the hot skillet. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Remove the cooked French toast and keep warm while you cook the remaining slices, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.
  6. Serve immediately with your preferred toppings.

Notes

  • Use slightly stale bread for the best texture; it absorbs the batter better without becoming soggy.
  • For richer flavor, substitute half of the milk with heavy cream.
  • Adjust the heat to medium-low if the outside browns too quickly before the center cooks.
