French Toast

While my parent's were gone, I decided to actually make breakfast for those here.  I had heard that French Toast was easy to make, so I thought I would try it.  And let me tell you, it was easy and very good.  I used a random recipe off the internet and made them, grilling and all.  (can you tell that I am proud of myself...sadly...)  http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/French-Toast-II/Detail.aspx

Here is my copy of the recipe with some added thoughts...

  • 4 eggs
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 12 slices white bread
  • Hand full of cinnamon sugar to sprinkle on the sizzling bread

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk, brown sugar and nutmeg; stir well to combine.
  2. Soak bread slices in the egg mixture until saturated.
  3. Heat a lightly buttered griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Brown slices on both sides, sprinkle with cinnamon and serve hot.
NOTES: only soak the bread for like 10 seconds each way.  The bread absorbs the batter very quickly and you don't want them soggy.
