About this recipe

French toast turns a few slices of bread into a special weekend breakfast. Thick slices are soaked in an egg, milk and cinnamon mixture, then cooked in butter until golden and crisp outside and soft inside. Top with berries, banana and honey or maple syrup.

Method

  1. Step 1

    Whisk the eggs, milk, cinnamon, vanilla and sugar in a shallow dish.

  2. Step 2

    Melt a little butter in a large frying pan over medium heat.

  3. Step 3

    Dip two slices of bread in the egg mixture for 10 seconds each side.

    20 sec

  4. Step 4

    Cook for 2–3 minutes each side until golden. Repeat with the remaining bread, adding butter as needed.

    5 min

  5. Step 5

    Serve topped with berries and a drizzle of honey.

Cooking tips

Slightly stale bread soaks up the custard without falling apart.

Storage

Best eaten straight away. Leftovers can be frozen and reheated in the toaster.
