Easy Classic French Toast Recipe

This easy classic French toast recipe is a breakfast favorite that comes together in minutes using simple ingredients you already have on hand. Golden on the outside and soft on the inside, it’s perfect for busy mornings, relaxed weekends, or a cozy brunch at home.

Using thick-cut or day-old bread helps create the best texture, while a touch of vanilla and cinnamon adds warm, comforting flavor. Serve it simply or dress it up with your favorite toppings.

Ingredients:

  • 4 slices of bread (thick-cut or day-old works best)

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1/2 cup milk (or cream for a richer texture)

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

  • 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)

  • Butter or oil, for frying

  • Fresh fruit

What You’ll Need:

  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk or fork
  • Large skillet or frying pan
  • Spatula

Instructions

  1. First, in a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar until well combined.

  2. Next, heat a large skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with butter or oil.

  3. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are evenly coated.
