Make French toast that is magic on a plate with this foolproof recipe.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 8 slices of challah bread, 3/4″-1″ thick
  • 2 eggs, whisked
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoon heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon granulated white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • butter
  • avocado oil
  • Your favorite French toast toppings: maple syrup, whipped cream, powdered sugar, fresh fruit

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the eggs, cream, sugar, and vanilla. Pour the custard mixture into a shallow dish.
  2. Dip each slice of challah bread into the mixture, allowing it to soak up the custard but without turning to mush (this is why dried bread works best!)
  3. Heat enough butter over a medium-low in skillet to lightly coat the bottom of the skillet. Add a splash (or spritz) of avocado oil to keep the butter from burning.
  4. Add the soaked bread slices to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Flip and repeat on the other side.
  5. Serve with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • If you’re making a large batch, keep your French toast warm in a 300˚F
  • Any type of bread can be used with French toast, brioche, French bread, etc.
  • If the bread is not stale, dry it in a 300˚F oven for 10 minutes.
  • Add cinnamon if desired.
