Sugar-Coated French Toast


We're typically whole wheat bread purists. We kind of figure that we might as well make our bread healthy and I personally think it tastes better... except with this. For us, French toast and wheaty bread make a bad combo. So, I'll occasionally buy some white or challah bread just for a yummy Saturday morning breakfast. I'm also a sugared doughnut fanatic, so this recipe is a happy moment for me. Another bonus, it's always nice to have an easy breakfast treat right at your fingertips. I think it goes without saying that Sweet Pea enjoyed this as well. Thanks Nigella!

Ingredients:
2 eggs, beaten together
1/2 cup milk
4 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 slices white bread or if you have stale challah bread (sweet braided bread), use that!
2 Tbs butter (or oil)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions:
Mix beaten eggs, milk, and vanilla in a bowl

Pour mixture into a large baking dish (9x13ish) and place bread in mixture. Let the slices soak up egg/milk for about 2-3 minutes per side

Add butter to a hot skillet or griddle. Cook soaked bread on griddle until each side is toasty

While bread is toasting, mix cinnamon and sugar together in a shallow bowl.

Once toast is done, move directly to the sugar mixture and cover bread with crispy sugar and cinnamon.

Enjoy with jam, honey syrup, or just as is!
