Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients
Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients:
- One baguette of bread
- Two eggs
- One large glass of milk
- Vegetable oil for frying
- A bit of vanilla sugar (optional for added flavor)
Step 2: Prepare the Egg Mixture
In this step, you’ll create the custard mix that gives French toast its rich flavor.
- In a large bowl, crack the two eggs.
- Add the large glass of milk to the eggs.
- If you like a hint of sweetness, add a sprinkle of vanilla sugar.
- Whisk the mixture until it is well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 3: Slice the Baguette
Now, you’ll need to prepare your bread for soaking.
- Take the baguette and slice it into thick pieces, about 1 inch in thickness.
- Make sure the slices are even to ensure uniform cooking.
Step 4: Soak the Bread
This step is crucial for ensuring that your bread absorbs the custard mixture.
- Dip each slice of baguette into the egg and milk mixture.
- Allow the bread to soak for about 10-15 seconds on each side, ensuring it’s well-coated but not falling apart.
Step 5: Cook the French Toast
Now it's time to fry the soaked bread slices.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of vegetable oil.
- Once the oil is hot, place the soaked bread slices in the skillet.
- Cook each slice for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
- Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Once cooked, it’s time to serve your delicious French toast.
- Remove the French toast from the skillet and place it on a plate.
- You can top it with powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or syrup according to your preference.
