French Toast

Ingredients:
* 6 thick slices of French or Italian bread or whatever variety of bread you prefer; It’s better if the bread is a little stale so it will hold up better in the egg-milk mixture.
*2/3 cup milk
*2 eggs
*1/2 tsp. cinnamon
*1 tsp vanilla extract
*pinch of salt
*softened butter for the skillet and for the bread
*maple or pancake syrup
*Note*
If using more than 6 slices of thick bread, I found that I had to use 3/4 cup of milk and 3 eggs.
Directions:
In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, vanilla and salt.
Heat a non stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 Tbs. of the butter.
Place the bread slices into the egg mixture quickly allowing it to coat both sides.
Place the slices into the skillet making sure not to over crowd it.
Cook for about 3 minutes on each side until the surface is golden; transfer to serving plates.
Add more butter to the skillet and continue to cook the remaining bread.
*Tip*
If you are cooking for a crowd, you can heat the oven to 200° and place the cooked bread slices on a baking sheet to keep warm.
Serve with butter and maple syrup.
Enjoy!
