French Vanilla Toast
 
This is an old,but perhaps forgotten simple French Toast Recipe  that our kids loved. In fact we would serve it for supper once in awhile.It is so easy to make. This recipe makes 6 slices.
 
Ingredients
 
2 eggs
1/2 cup of milk (I like whole milk)
2 Tbsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. of pure vannilla extract
1/4 tsp. of cinnamon
1 Tbsp. butter or margarine
6 slices of bread ( I like to leave the bread out over night)
 
Directions
 
Whisk eggs,milk,sugar,vanilla and cinnamon in a medium bowl.
Milt butter in frying pan over medium-high heat. Dip bread slices in egg mixture and brown on both sides
 
We like our French Toast with wyrup ( pure Maple if we can afford it) and a little powered sugor on top.
 
Very Good, you will love it
