French Toast

While some individuals may reserve this for a weekend activity, I enjoy making French toast on mornings I have more than 10 minutes to eat before I walk out the door. While I may vary how much cinnamon, sugar, and nutmeg I mix in on some days, the recipe below is generally how I make it. I have used a variety of breads including plain loaf bread (wheat, white, and multi-grain), French bread, hamburger/hotdog buns, and Italian bread. I typically just top it with just powdered sugar. I try to reserve syrup for special occasions since Alaga Syrup isn't sold in the Mountain West region. (NOTE: The recipe is intended to make breakfast for one hungry person.)

Ingredients:
2-3 pieces of bread
1 egg
1/2 tbsp milk
1/2 tbsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tbsp sugar
Powdered sugar and syrup (optional)

1) Heat skillet on medium-high heat.
2) In a small bowl beat egg and milk. Add vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar. Beat mixture again until well-blended.
3) Lightly grease the bottom of the heated skillet. Dip bread in egg mixture covering all surface area. Place in skillet.
4) Brown each side and serve topped with powdered sugar and syrup.
