Instructions
-
In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until completely uniform.
-
Heat a large non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat and melt a tablespoon of butter.
-
Dip bread slices into the egg custard mixture for about 20 seconds per side, allowing the bread to soak through without falling apart.
-
Place soaked slices onto the hot griddle and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side until deeply golden and cooked through.
-
Transfer to a warm platter, dust lightly with powdered sugar, and serve with warm pure maple syrup.
Notes & Tips
Slightly stale bread absorbs the egg custard much better without turning soggy.
