Making French Bread French Toast is straightforward if you follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare the Bread: Slice the French bread into 1-inch thick pieces and set aside.
2. Make the Custard Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar until well combined.
3. Soak the Bread: Dip each slice of French bread into the custard mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side. Make sure to coat the bread thoroughly.
4. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt a tablespoon of butter. You may need more depending on how many slices you’re cooking.
5. Cook the French Toast: Place the soaked bread slices in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
6. Repeat: Continue the process with the remaining slices, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
7. Serve: Once cooked, transfer the French toast to a serving platter.
