• Ready In: 23mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 6 large eggs
• 354.88 ml whole milk
• 14.79 ml pure vanilla extract
• 14.79 ml ground cinnamon
• 29.58 ml granulated sugar
• 0.61 ml kosher salt
• 8 slice country style white bread, each about 3/4 inch thick
• canola cooking spray
• confectioners' sugar
• butter
• maple syrup

directions

1. In a large bowl whisk the eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, sugar, and salt. Arrange the bread in one layer in a large baking dish and pour the egg mixture over the bread. Let the bread stand for 10 minutes at room temperature, turning the bread occasionally so that all the slices get a chance to sit in the liquid on both sides.
2. Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium–low heat (about 350°F).
3. Brush the cooking grates clean. Tip one slice of bread on its side so that any extra liquid runs off. Spray both sides with the oil and then place on the grill. Repeat with the remaining slices. Grill over direct medium–low heat, with the lid closed as much as possible, until firm on both sides and golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes, turning once. Remove from the grill and dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve immediately with butter and syrup.

Thank you for sharing your recipe Info4YourLife. This was a nice flavored, easy to make french toast, using ingredients found in most pantries. I found the french toast to be a little salty, next time I would use just a pinch or cut it out completely. I garnished with butter, maple syrup and a sprinkling of icing sugar as recommended. Made for Fall Pac 2011.
