Ingredients


4 eggs


2/3 cup whole milk


1/3 cup flour


1/3 cup sugar


1/2 teaspoon vanilla


1/4 teaspoon salt


1/8 teaspoon cinnamon


6 slices Texas toast thick bread


3 tablespoons butter


powdered sugar, butter, or syrup for topping


Directions=


Mix together the eggs, milk, flour, sugar, vanilla, salt %26amp; cinnamon.


Then heat a large skillet, or griddle, and when the skillet is hot, add 1 tablespoon butter.


Dip each slice of bread into the batter for 30 seconds on each side and let some of the batter drip off, then put in skillet.


Cook each slice 1 1/2-2 minutes per side until each side is golden brown.


Add more butter, if necessary, to cook all of the slices.
2 eggs, beaten


1/2 cup milk


6 slices thick stable bread


1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract


1/2 cup sugar (or to your liking)


Cinnamon


Butter





Beat eggs, milk, sugar, a fair amount of cinnamon and extract. Dip bread into this mixture (stir before dipping each slice). Cook in a pan coated with butter. I like to sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on each side. Add butter each time you put a new slice of bread down or you flip the bread that's already in the pan!
It isn't rocket science; measurements don't need to be exact.





For a medium sized batch you'd make a mix of 2 eggs, a splash of milk, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon. Whisk together, let it sit for 20 minutes.





Dunk thick slices of bread, then fry them on a well buttered skillet and top with confectioner's sugar.





That's a quick and dirty. If you want to get fancy, a little Grand Marnier and heavy cream in the mix never hurt anyone.
