How do you make French toast?

Ingredients:

- 1 cup of milk

- 2 eggs

- A pinch of salt

- A pinch of cinnamon (optional)

- 2 tablespoons of butter

- 4 slices of bread (preferably thick and of a sturdy variety like brioche or sourdough)

Instructions:

Step 1: Dip the bread slices in the egg mixture.

- In a shallow dish or a bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, salt, and cinnamon (if using) until well combined.

- One by one, dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, making sure both sides get evenly coated.

Step 2: Cook the French toast.

- Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.

- Add the butter, letting it melt and spread across the surface of the pan.

- Once the butter is hot, carefully place the soaked bread slices into the pan, ensuring they are not overcrowded.

- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.

Step 3: Serve the French toast.

- Once cooked, remove the French toast slices from the pan and place them on a plate.

- Serve immediately, optionally topped with additional butter, maple syrup, whipped cream, or your preferred toppings.

Remember, cooking times may vary depending on the type of bread and your stove's heat. Adjust accordingly for the desired level of doneness and adjust the recipe based on your personal preferences and the number of servings you need.
