Instructions

Prepare Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Cook French Toast: Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon butter. Dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Add more butter to the skillet as needed for remaining slices.
Serve: Serve warm with powdered sugar and maple syrup.

Notes

Use day-old or slightly stale bread for best texture.
Brioche or challah breads give a rich, tender result.
For extra flavor, add a splash of orange zest or a pinch of nutmeg to the egg mixture.
