Equipment

  • a heavy-based pan or skillet
  • mixing bowl
  • whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 8 slices toast bread
  • 2 large eggs
  • 250 ml milk
  • pinch salt
  • 4 tablespoons melted butter and a neutral cooking oil (2 tablespoons of each)
  • 4 teaspoons cinnamon sugar

Instructions
 

  • In a shallow bowl or a plate, whisk the eggs then add the milk and salt.
  • Dip each slice of bread in the egg mixture, allow to slightly soak, and then flip in order to coat both sides.
  • Heat oil in a pan or skillet. Lift each slice of bread to drain as much of the egg-mixture as possible into the bowl, then place the slices on the pan.
  • Fry on both sides under medium to low heat until golden brown then transfer the bread to a plate. Repeat the process for the remaining bread slices.
  • Once done, sprinkle the cinnamon sugar on top then serve.

Notes

Make a savory version by using cheese and bacon. Adjust oil amount depending on the type of pan. Wipe the pan after each 1-2 batches to prevent butter from burning.
