Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until no whites are showing. Then, whisk in heavy cream, milk, sugar, vanilla, and spices until homogeneous.
- FRENCH TOAST 2 WAYS: If deep-frying, use French bread (better size for deep-frying) and follow soaking time and cooking method in this RECIPE. This is my favorite because it is custardy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. If pan-frying, follow method below.
- Preheat oven to 200 F (solely for keeping cooked French Toast warm)
- Dip bread into mixture and soak for about 30-60 seconds on each side. Then, place slices on a rack set onto a sheet pan and let sit for about 2 minutes to drain off excess liquid..
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Cook in batches. Place slices of bread into the pan in a single layer and cook until golden brown (1-2 minutes per side).
- Remove from pan and place on a sheet pan in the preheated oven to keep them warm while cooking the remaining toasts. Repeat with all slices.
- Serve warm with maple syrup, berries, or any other topping of your choice.
