Description
Discover the best French toast recipe using McCormick spices. Quick, easy, and perfect for a flavorful breakfast or brunch!
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 slices of brioche, challah, or Texas toast
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk or heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon McCormick Vanilla Extract
- 1 teaspoon McCormick Ground Cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- Pinch of McCormick Nutmeg (optional)
- Pinch of salt
- Butter, for frying
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, McCormick Vanilla Extract, and McCormick Ground Cinnamon until smooth. Add a pinch of McCormick Nutmeg and salt for extra flavor if desired.
- Pour the custard mixture into a shallow dish, like a pie pan, for easy dipping.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a pat of butter and let it melt evenly.
- Dip each slice of bread into the custard, allowing it to soak for about 10 seconds per side.
- Place the soaked bread slices onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crisp.
- Repeat with the remaining bread slices, adding more butter as needed.
- Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
Notes
- For extra richness, use heavy cream instead of milk in the custard mixture.
- Stale bread works best as it absorbs the custard without becoming overly soggy.
- To make savory French toast, omit the sugar and vanilla, and add McCormick Garlic Powder and black pepper to the custard.
