Directions

1

{"0":"In medium size bowl add in 4 eggs & 2\/3 c. of milk","2":"In a measuring cup \/small bowl mix together 1\/2t. cinnamon and 1 t. vanilla ( I do this separately because it keeps the cinnamon from floating to the top and helps it mix in better.) Add this mixture to the egg & milk.","4":"In a separate bowl add in 1\/3 c. flour, 1\/3 c. sugar, 1\/8 t. salt. Whisk well until light and powdery. We don't want those ugly flour lumps in our egg mixture.","6":"Gradually add flour mixture into egg mixture. Whisking after each addition. Now if you're a cinnamon freak like me and like to actually see the cinnamon on your french toastthen go ahead and shake in a few shakes of that stuff in the batter.","8":"Heat a griddle with 1 T. of butter until melted over med-high heat. Drop a few drops of water onto the griddle and if the water dances around slightly the griddle is ready! If it smokes then it's too hot.","10":"Place the bread into the egg mixture for about 4 seconds per side. Now a lot of recipes I've come across says leave them in there for about 30 seconds but I found that was too long for my taste since I don't like a real dense, soggy french toast. Do a small sample piece and see how you prefer it.","12":"Place the dipped bread onto the griddle and cook until both sides are golden brown. About 2- 3 minutes. When I'm on the last side I sometimes use a spatula to flatten the bread down a little. When I don't hear any more sizzle from the raw egg I know the bread is done on the inside."}
