Answer 3

Here is the recipe I usually use; it's a classic stovetop version:

INGREDIENTS

6 thick slices bread

2 eggs

2/3 cup milk

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

salt to taste

DIRECTIONS

Beat together egg, milk, salt, desired spices and vanilla.

Heat a lightly oiled griddle of skillet over medium-high flame.

Dunk each slice of bread in egg mixture, soaking both sides. Place in pan, and cook on both sides until golden. Serve hot.

But when I'm in the mood for something really special and I have some time, I use this baked recipe with caramel sauce. So good!

Answer 4

FRENCH TOAST

3 large eggs

1 tsp vanilla

1/4 tsp salt

2/3 cup milk

8 slices thick sliced bread

1/8 tsp almond extract (optional)  

2 tbsp oil or butter

Begin by mixing together the eggs, vanilla, salt and milk. Pour the mixture into a dish large enough to hold a few pieces of bread at a time. Turn the heat to medium-high and lightly oil your griddle or frying pan.

Soak the bread in the egg mixture for a minute or two, or until the bread is soaked through.

Cook the French toast on each side for about 3 to 5 minutes or until bread is golden and cooked all the way through. The centre should no longer be eggy and wet.

Enjoy:)

dash of salt

Answer 7

Me

One egg for each 2 slices of bread

Beat in a small amount of milk, cinnamon sugar and best touch - vanilla.  

Dip the bread quickly and fry in butter.  

I find if the bread is too thick and you really sop it - it never seems to cook the egg that had soaked into the middle and it will all be soggy and raw.  So quick dip so the egg does not soak through to the middle.

Answer 8

Pecan French Toast

INGREDIENTS

4 eggs

2/3 cup orange juice

1/3 cup milk

1/4 cup white sugar

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 (1 pound) loaf Italian bread, cut into 1 inch slices

1/3 cup butter, melted

1/2 cup chopped pecans

2 tablespoons grated orange zest

DIRECTIONS

In a large bowl, beat together eggs, orange juice, milk, sugar, nutmeg and vanilla extract. Place bread slices in a tightly spaced single layer in the bottom of a flat dish or baking pan. Pour milk mixture over bread, cover and refrigerate overnight, turning once.

When ready to cook, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Coat a jelly roll pan, or rimmed baking sheet, evenly with the melted butter. Arrange soaked bread slices in a single layer on pan. Sprinkle evenly with orange peel and pecans.

Bake in preheated oven until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Check slices during last 10 minutes of baking time to avoid burning.
