Classic French Toast

• 1 inch thick Bread Slices
• Breads that work best are Italian, Danish, Challah, Brioche and Baguette
• Milk
• 1/2 cup for rigid, chewy Toast,
• 1 cup for soft, jelly-like Toast,
• 3/4 cup for moderate Toast
• 1 Large Egg
• 2 Tablespoons Maple or Butter Syrup
• 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract/Essence
• 2 Pinches Cinnamon
• A Pinch of Salt
• Butter for cooking

1. In a wide bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vanilla, cinnamon and salt. One at a time, soak the Bread slices into the mixture (15 seconds per side), and put the bread aside.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter in it. Put the toasts in the skillet and cook each side for 3-4 minutes (or until they are light brown/golden in color)
3. Take out the toasts, serve with more syrup on top, fresh cream or fresh fruit.
