Instructions
- Preheat Griddle: Preheat griddle to 350 degrees F or heat a skillet over medium heat.
- Prepare Batter: In a blender, combine eggs, milk, flour, sugar, salt, cinnamon, and vanilla. Blend until smooth. Alternatively, mix by hand in a shallow dish.
- Dip and Cook: Dip bread slices into the batter, coating both sides, and cook on a greased griddle or skillet until golden brown on both sides.
- Serve: Remove from heat and serve warm with syrup and powdered sugar.
Notes
- Bread: Thick-sliced bread works best, preferably slightly stale for better absorption of the batter.
- Flour: Using flour in the batter creates fluffier French toast.
- Milk: Higher fat milk yields a creamier batter.
- Make Ahead: Batter can be prepared 1-2 days in advance.
- Freezing: Cool completely before freezing for up to 3 months.
