Ready In: 20 mins
Yields: 20-25 slices
Ingredients
- 20 -25 slices whole wheat bread (slightly stale)
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons sugar (optional)
- extra cinnamon (optional)
- butter
Optional Toppings
- maple syrup (optional)
- fruit syrup (optional)
- hot cooked fruit (optional)
- jam (optional)
- sausage gravy (optional)
- milk gravy (from fried ham) (optional)
- powdered sugar (optional)
- cinnamon sugar (optional)
- brown sugar (optional)
Directions
- Beat the eggs in a bowl large enough to hold everything -- preferably one with a pouring spout.
- Beat in the milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and sugar.
- Heat a griddle and butter lightly.
- Pour some of the mix into a wide, shallow dish that will hold a slice of bread.
- Dip both sides of a slice of bread into the mix and lay it on the griddle. Fill the griddle.
- Cook slices until nicely browned, flip and brown the other side.
- Repeat with the rest of the bread. Be sure to beat the mix a few strokes before each refilling of the shallow dish. Add extra cinnamon if too much gets stuck to the early slices.
- Serve with a choice of your favorite toppings.
