Make perfect, golden, fluffy French toast in under 20 minutes using this simple recipe. It creates a custardy center ideal for a fast breakfast or weekend brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 slices thick bread (like challah or brioche)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon butter, for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar until fully combined. This creates your classic French toast batter.
  2. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add half of the butter and let it melt until it sizzles lightly.
  3. Dip one slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for about 15 to 20 seconds per side. Do not over-soak if you want fluffy results.
  4. Place the soaked bread onto the hot skillet. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until the French toast is golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Remove the cooked slices and keep them warm while you cook the remaining bread, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
  6. Serve your easy French toast immediately with your favorite toppings like maple syrup or fresh fruit.

Notes

  • For extra custardy French toast, use slightly thicker bread and let it soak for 30 seconds per side.
  • If you prefer a sweeter coating, mix 1 tablespoon of sugar with 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and lightly dust the cooked slices.
  • This recipe is great for family breakfast ideas; simply double or triple the ingredients for a larger crowd.
