French Toast for One

Name: French Toast for One
Total time: 1200 s
Yield: 1 serving
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 2 thick slices of bread (~ 3/4"). I like brioche, challah, and Texas toast. Slightly stale is even better; extra maple syrup or powdered sugar to finish; butter for cooking; Custard ingredients:; 1 large egg; 1/4 cup whole milk (If you like it richer, you can use half and half or cream. If lighter, lowfat milk.); 1 pinch kosher salt; a few grinds (or small pinch) of cinnamon; 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1 teaspoon maple syrup or sugar

Ingredients

20 minutes

1 serving

2thick slices of bread (~ 3/4"). I like brioche, challah, and Texas toast. Slightly stale is even better
extra maple syrup or powdered sugar to finish
butter for cooking
Custard ingredients:
1large egg
1/4 cupwhole milk (If you like it richer, you can use half and half or cream. If lighter, lowfat milk.)
1 pinchkosher salt
a fewgrinds (or small pinch) of cinnamon
1/4 teaspoonvanilla extract
1 teaspoonmaple syrup or sugar

Cooking Instructions

20 minutes

1

In a medium bowl, mix all the custard ingredients and beat or whisk until thoroughly combined. (Sometimes I like to pick out the chalaza, which is the twisty white cord from the egg.)
2

Pour the custard mixture in a baking dish and soak your bread in the custard, flipping after about 20 seconds to make sure both sides absorb the mixture.
3

Preheat your frypan to medium, melt about a Tablespoon of butter on it and spread it around.
4

Cook your French Toast for about 3 to 4 minutes per side or until each side is golden brown, and the center of the bread has firmed up from the custard cooking through. If you see that the toast is browning too quickly for the custard to cook through without burning the toast, turn the heat down just a bit.
5

If you can't fit both whole pieces of bread on your pan or griddle, cutting the bread slices in half might enable you to arrange them so you can cook them in one batch.
6

Enjoy with a drizzle of maple syrup or sprinkling of powdered sugar. :)

I call this Mountain French Toast. The first time I had it was up in the mountains of NC, many years ago. Liked it so much I asked the cook for the special ingredient he used.

Got some leftover stale bread or brioche? Nothing’s easier or tastier than French toast! And why not add a splash of rum for extra flavor?

I wanted to eat French toast soaked in a milky mixture.When soaking the bread in the egg mixture, hold it firmly so it is coated well and evenly. Leave it in the mixture to soak and you'll get a nice melting texture. It will be as if it had been rested for a day. Recipe by Gakkoiburi
