Ingredients
- 6 to 8 lices thick bread, challah or brioche bread
- 2 large eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- ¾ cup milk
- 1 Tablespoon brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- unsalted butter for cooking.
- Your favorite syrup and fruit for serving.
Instructions
- If the bread is not stale, let it sit on a baking sheet for an hour or so to harden it up a little bit.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs & yolks, milk, sugar, cinnamon, salt and vanilla, until foamy and smooth. Set aside.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Place a small amount of butter (enough to coat the bottom of the skillet when melted) in the skillet and melt.
- Place 1 or 2 slices of bread at the time in the bowl with the egg mixture, turning, until saturated. Do not soak!
- When butter is just melted and bubbling, add bread slices in batches, cooking until they’re golden brown and crisp, a couple of minutes per side.
- Serve immediately, or transfer to the oven to keep warm while cooking remaining bread.
- Top with maple syrup, berries, jam, sliced bananas, or whatever you'd like.
Notes
- Calories do not include the count for syrup or toppings.
- Oversoaking is the enemy here; just be sure to dip the bread quickly to soak each side, then put right into a hot pan. If the bread soaks too long in the batter, the inside becomes really heavy and soggy, and doesn't cook all the way through.
- Make sure the pan is completely hot before frying, otherwise the bread may stick to the pan and you'll end up with a mess!
- Don't have stale bread? Toast the bread lightly first. This will help the bread to stay crispy and not soggy. Calories do not include the count for syrup or toppings.
