Creating The Best French Toast is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Mix the Custard: In a large bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk until thorough and combined.

2. Prepare the Bread: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.

3. Soak the Bread: Dip a slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side. Ensure it absorbs enough mixture for a rich flavor but doesn’t become overly soggy.

4. Cook the Bread: Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the skillet. Place the soaked bread in the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown.

5. Repeat: Add more butter as necessary and repeat with remaining slices of bread.

6. Serve: Once cooked, serve the French toast warm, drizzled with maple syrup and dusted with powdered sugar if desired.

7. Garnish: Top with fresh fruits such as strawberries, blueberries, or bananas for added nutrition and flavor.
