FRENCH TOAST (OUR BREAKFAST SPECIALTY)
Read all instructions before you start
INGREDIENTS
- 3 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- cinnamon
- sliced white bread
|
DIRECTIONS
- Whisk the eggs and then add the milk and cinnamon
- Heat a fry pan or hot plate with some melted butter or oil
- Soak the slices of bread one at a time in the milk and egg mixture. Let it soak up the liquid and them drop onto the hot plate or pan. Fry lightly on both sides.
- You may need to add cinnamon as you go because it floats on top and each slice a bread tends to take all the cinnamon
- Serve with jam, honey, lemon and sugar or maple syrup
