Cinnamon French Toast

1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, brown sugar, and salt until smooth.
2. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
3. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture for about 10–15 seconds per side, allowing it to soak without becoming soggy.
4. Place the bread onto the hot skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
5. Add more butter to the pan as needed for the remaining slices.
6. Serve warm with maple syrup, a dusting of powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings.

Tips:

1. Slightly stale bread works best because it absorbs the custard without falling apart.
2. For extra cinnamon flavor, mix 1 tablespoon cinnamon sugar and sprinkle it over the French toast immediately after cooking.
3. Serve with crispy bacon or breakfast sausage for a complete breakfast.
