French toasts are easy to do and very tasty. They fit perfectly for breakfast or brunch, or as a quick to prepare snack.
It is good to use not so fresh, 2 or 3 days old bread for french toasts. However it you only have fresh bread – just dry slices of it in the toster for a bit, it will make preparation easier.
French toasts can be served plain or with various topping: honey, berry jams or syrups. I prefer them topped with shredded cheese or mix of cheeses.
Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 4 slices of white bread
- 1/3 cup of milk
- Ground cinnamon, to taste
- Vanilla sugar, about ½ teaspoon
- Shredded cheese of your choice
- 1 table spoon of butter
How to prepare, step-by-step:
-
Prepare ingredients: it will work better if bread that you use is 2-3 days old, fresh bread will sodden fast and may be hard to handle, if you only have fresh bread – dry bread slices it a bit in a toster before using for french toasts; also vanilla sugar can be replaced with vanilla extract:
