Ingredients
Scale
French Toast Batter
- 2 Eggs
- ½ cup Milk
- ½ teaspoon Cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon Ginger
- ¼ teaspoon Nutmeg
Base
- 1 Loaf Canyon Bakehouse Heritage White Bread
- ¼ cup Butter
Suggested Toppings
- Maple Syrup
- Mandolin-sliced Apples
- Pecans
- Cinnamon Granola
Instructions
- Prepare the batter: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg until well combined and the spices are evenly distributed.
- Heat the skillet: Warm a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface.
- Coat the bread slices: Working one slice at a time, dip each piece of Canyon Bakehouse Heritage White Bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated but not soggy.
- Cook the French toast: Place the coated bread onto the hot skillet and cook for 1 to 2 minutes per side, flipping halfway through, until each side is golden brown and slightly crisp.
- Assemble and serve: Arrange the cooked French toast slices on plates, add toppings as desired—mandolin-sliced apples, pecans, cinnamon granola—and drizzle generously with maple syrup. Serve immediately for optimal flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use Canyon Bakehouse Heritage White Bread or a quality sturdy bread to hold up well when soaked.
- Adjust spices to taste; more cinnamon or nutmeg can enhance warmth.
- Butter quantity can be adjusted based on skillet size to prevent sticking.
- Mandolin-sliced apples add a fresh, crisp contrast but can be substituted with sautéed apples if preferred.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute the milk with almond or oat milk and use a plant-based butter alternative.
