Main Ingredients
  • 2 slices thick-cut bread

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Whisk together the egg, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon in a shallow dish until well combined.

Cooking

  2. Cook each bread slice for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Serving
  1. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, or powdered sugar.

Notes

For extra fluffiness, use slightly stale bread or bread that is a day or two old. Adjust sugar and cinnamon to taste.
