Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 2 large eggs can be substituted with flax eggs for a vegan version
  • ½ cup water or dairy-free milk for extra flavor
  • 1 tablespoon neutral tasting oil e.g., canola or coconut oil for a tropical flavor
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract preferably pure for better flavor
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar optional, can be omitted if using sweet bread
  • thick slices of white bread or challah slightly stale bread works best for texture
  • oil for frying to prevent sticking and ensure browning

Equipment

  • Non-stick skillet or griddle

Method
 

  1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, vanilla extract, and neutral oil until fully combined and frothy.
  2. Stir in the cinnamon and optional brown sugar until evenly incorporated.
  3. Preheat the skillet or griddle over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until hot.
  4. Quickly dip each slice of bread into the egg batter, making sure both sides are coated without soaking too long.
  5. Add a small amount of oil to the skillet and place the soaked slices in, frying for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  6. Once cooked, serve immediately with toppings such as maple syrup, fresh berries, or powdered sugar.
