Steps
1
Crack four eggs into a large bowl, then add milk, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly until the eggs are fully incorporated and you have a smooth custard.
2
Preheat your oven to 200°F and place a wire rack over a baking sheet—this will keep your cooked toast warm as you work.
3
Place a skillet over medium heat and add butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
4
Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture. Soak for about 5 seconds per side for a custardy toast, or just a few seconds per side for a less saturated version.
5
Place the soaked bread into the hot skillet and cook for about 2 minutes per side until golden brown.
6
Transfer the cooked toast to the prepared baking sheet in the oven to stay warm. Add more butter to the skillet as needed and repeat the dipping and cooking process with the remaining bread slices.
7
Serve the French toast warm, garnished with maple syrup, fresh berries, whipped cream, or your preferred toppings.
