How to Make French Vanilla Toast

This recipe for French Vanilla Toast was passed down to me in our family cookbook. It is one of our favorite weekend breakfast dishes; but, as far as my son is concerned, he would eat it every day.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 4 eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 8-10 slices of bread
• butter
• maple syrup

1. HEAT UP THE GRIDDLE.
   This recipe calls for the use of a non-stick skillet, but a non-stick griddle can be used as well. Set the the griddle or skillet to medium heat. Let it heat up while you proceed to step 2.

2. 
    
   Add fresh nutmeg to the mix and a little extra sugar. Whisk until blended.

   MIX THE INGREDIENTS.
   Beat the eggs, milk,vanilla,and spices in a shallow bowl with a fork or whisk until well blended. For the best flavor, I grate fresh nutmeg. I also use a bit more sugar than the recipe calls for. Season to taste.

3. 
    
   Let them cook 4 minutes on one side, turn and cook until golden brown.

   DIP THE BREAD.
   Dip bread slices one at a time into egg mixture and place them flat on the griddle about 4 minutes until golden brown. Turn with a pancake turner and cook another 4 minutes.

4. USE BUTTER AND SYRUP TO TASTE.
   Serve hot with butter and maple syrup to taste. Makes four servings.
