Caramelized French Toast
This French toast gets its unique flavor and texture from the caramelization that takes place during cooking, resulting in a crispy exterior and a soft, fluffy interior.
Ingredients:
- 4 slices of thick bread (such as brioche or challah)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Maple syrup (for serving)
- Fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the bottom of the skillet.
- Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated. Let any excess mixture drip off before placing the bread in the skillet.
- Cook the bread slices for about 3-4 minutes on one side, until golden brown and caramelized. Flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side.
- Remove the French toast from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat the process for any remaining slices.
- Serve the caramelized French toast warm, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with fresh berries if desired. Enjoy!
This recipe is not only easy to make but also elevates a classic breakfast dish into something truly special. Whether it's a casual weekday morning or a festive holiday brunch, this caramelized French toast is sure to be a hit!
