You can make perfectly golden, fluffy French toast quickly using simple pantry ingredients. This foolproof recipe delivers a custardy center and crisp edges every time, making it the best homemade French toast for a fast breakfast or brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large slices of bread (Texas Toast or Brioche work best)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk (whole or 2% recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon butter, for the griddle

Instructions

  1. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar until the mixture is fully combined. This is your foolproof French toast batter.
  2. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt until it sizzles slightly.
  3. Quickly dip one slice of bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides. Let any excess drip off for just a second. Do not let the bread soak too long, or it will become soggy.
  4. Place the coated bread onto the hot skillet. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until the French toast is golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Repeat with the remaining slices, adding more butter to the skillet as needed between batches.
  6. Serve your golden brown French toast immediately with your favorite toppings like maple syrup or fresh fruit.

Notes

  • For extra fluffy French toast, use slightly stale or thicker-cut bread.
  • If you want a richer flavor, substitute half of the milk with half-and-half.
  • You can make this a family friendly breakfast by cutting the slices into halves or quarters before serving.
