Total Time 20 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8

slices bread

5

whole eggs 

1/4 c.

half-and-half

2 tbsp.

sugar

1 tsp.

ground cinnamon

2 tsp.

vanilla extract

butter, for frying and serving

warm syrup, for serving

strawberries, for serving (optional)

whipped cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • In a bowl, whisk together eggs, half-and-half, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Dunk each bread slice into the mixture so that it's fully coated. Set pieces aside on a plate. Heat a large nonstick skillet over low heat, then melt a small amount of butter. Add as many pieces as will fit, cut side down, then increase the heat very slightly (don't go above medium-low). Allow the toast to cook on the first side for 3 to 4 minutes. Move it around in the skillet a bit to make sure it doesn't burn. When it's deep golden brown on the surface, flip it to the other side and let it cook for another 2 minutes or so. Remove from the pan and cook the rest of the bread slices. Serve with butter, warm syrup, strawberries, and whipped cream. Absolute heaven!
