Ingredients
For the Challah French Toast
- 1 loaf of challah bread, sliced
- 4 large eggs
- ½ cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Slice the Bread: Slice your challah bread if it is not pre-sliced. Set the slices aside on a plate or tray ready for dipping.
- Prepare Egg Mixture: In a small shallow dish, whisk together the 4 large eggs, ½ cup whole milk, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon until fully combined and smooth.
- Heat Pan: Place a pan or skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat the surface with butter or nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Dip and Cook: Once the pan is heated (about 1 minute), dip each slice of challah bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides thoroughly. Place the coated bread slices onto the hot pan and cook for about 2 minutes per side, or until each side is golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove the cooked French toast from the pan and serve immediately. Enjoy as is or with your favorite toppings such as whipped cream, syrup, or fresh fruit.
Notes
- Challah bread can usually be found in the bakery section of most grocery stores. If unavailable, brioche bread is a great substitute due to its similar texture.
- Try topping your French toast with whipped cream, maple syrup, fresh berries, or powdered sugar for extra flavor.
- For variation, you can use warm spices like pumpkin pie spice, nutmeg, or cloves instead of cinnamon.
- If you don’t have whole milk, any milk alternative or lower-fat milk will work just fine.
- Leftover French toast can be stored in an airtight container or Ziploc bag in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- To reheat, microwave the French toast for 35-45 seconds per two slices until warmed through.
