Everyone needs a good, standard French Toast recipe and this is mine. I’ve been making it for a couple decades now and it gets rave reviews every time. It’s one of our family staples.
The trick is to add a generous portion of pure vanilla extract as well as cinnamon and nutmeg to the egg mixture. 🙂
Hope some of you get a chance to try it!
***NOTE*** The kind of bread you use makes a big difference. Grandma Sycamore’s is a great brand that works well. My homemade Wheat Bread and my French Bread recipe are also great. Ok….I’ll admit, the French Bread is down right heavenly. But of course less healthy than the Wheat Bread.
Ingredients
- 5 beaten eggs
- 1 C milk
- 1/2 t cinnamon
- 1/4 t nutmeg
- 4 t vanilla
- 3 T sugar
- 1/8 t salt
- 16 slices of bread

1. Heat up a large plug in griddle to 350.
2. Place all ingredients, but the bread, in a square dish. Whisk until all ingredients are incorporated.
3. Dip each piece of bread in the milk/egg mixture, being sure to coat both sides.
4. Spray the skillet with cooking spray, put eight pieces of dipped bread on at a time.
5. Flip the bread over when the under side is golden brown. (about 3 minutes) and then cook until the other side is done.
6. Serve hot topped with syrup, fruit, jam, powdered sugar, peanut butter, or fresh fruit....what ever your little heart desires!

I made this French Toast today and it was super yummy! The mixture of the nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla were an excellent combination. I happened to have some frozen blueberries so I used that as my syrup but I went a accidentally went a little overboard on the blueberries…live and learn, right! Thanks for sharing your recipes. I’m loving them!

Hi,I was just wondering if you made this and had left overs,would the left overs freeze well?And if you froze them how would you reheat them?I’m not very good at cooking so I don’t know some of these processes,but want to learn to be a better cook.I really enjoy reading your recipes..I just found your blog recently,I think through pinterest or something I can’t remember…
Can you do it without nutmeg?
Yulitza,
Sure! It will still be great without the nutmeg.
