I read dozens of French toast recipes and combined the best (worst) parts of each into my own. I even upgraded some ingredients to more artery-stopping options.

Steps

20 minutes

1

Set out the eggs and butter in advance (perhaps overnight) to bring them to room temperature. This helps keep the butter from solidifying in the mix later.
2

Whisk the eggs while adding in the half-and-half, syrup, vanilla, and spices.
3

Melt the butter and slowly pour into the mix while continuing to whisk. This is to keep the butter from solidifying into large blobs in the mix.
4

Dunk slices of bread one at a time, making sure it is covered in delicious goop. Don't let it linger too long, lest it get soggy.
5

Lay each slice of bread onto a medium-heat griddle or pan. You do not need oil or butter on the pan. Trust me, there's enough fat in the mix already.
6

Flip each slice when lightly browned.
7

Serve topped with maple syrup.
