1. Prepare the Custard: In a large shallow bowl or dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined. This will
create the custard mixture for soaking the bread.
2. Soak the Bread: Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Dip each slice of bread into the custard mixture,
allowing it to soak for about 10-15 seconds on each side, making sure the bread absorbs the mixture without becoming too soggy.
3. Cook the French Toast: Place the soaked bread slices onto the skillet or griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Add more butter to the pan as needed to ensure the toast doesn¡¯t stick and cooks evenly.
4. Serve: Once all the French toast is cooked, serve immediately with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, powdered sugar, fresh berries, or whipped
cream.
