Instructions
Prepare the egg batter
In a shallow bowl whisk together the eggs, whole milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined and smooth. The mixture should be uniform with no streaks of egg white remaining.
Soak the bread
Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture for about 20 to 30 seconds per side allowing the bread to fully absorb the custard mixture without falling apart. Slightly stale bread works better because it absorbs without becoming too soggy.
Cook the French toast
Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Cook each soaked slice for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown on both sides and cooked through with no raw egg remaining in the center.
Slice into strips and serve
Transfer the cooked French toast to a cutting board and slice each piece into 3 to 4 strips approximately finger-width in size. Allow to cool for 2 minutes and serve with a small amount of unsweetened applesauce or mashed berry for dipping.
