👉🏻Ingredients list⚠️

  • Toast slices: 2 (recommend using thick toast, such as baguette slices)

  • Eggs: 2

  • Fresh milk: 100 milliliters

  • Granulated sugar: 1 tablespoon (optional)

  • Butter: as needed

  • Vanilla extract: a few drops (optional)

French toast, a classic dish originating from France, is deeply loved by foodies worldwide for its unique taste and rich nutritional value. With a crispy outer crust and soft, creamy interior, paired with sweet jam or creamy toppings, every bite is a delightful treat for the taste buds.

👉🏻✨DIRECTIONS:

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, fresh milk, granulated sugar (if using), and vanilla extract (if using) until well combined.

  2. Dip the toast slices into the egg-milk mixture, ensuring both sides are fully soaked, but not for too long to avoid the toast becoming too soggy.

  3. Heat a skillet, add some butter, and once the butter is melted, place the soaked toast slices in the skillet. Cook over medium-low heat until both sides are golden brown and crispy.

  4. Place the cooked toast slices on a plate, drizzle with jam, cream, or pair with fresh fruits, and enjoy.

👉🏻✨TIPS

  • The choice of toast slices is crucial; thick toast is better at maintaining its shape and not falling apart during cooking.

  • When soaking the toast slices, control the soaking time to avoid the toast absorbing too much liquid and becoming too soft.

  • When cooking the toast, adjust the heat to avoid burning or undercooking.

👉🏻✨BENEFITS

  • French toast is not only delicious but also provides rich energy and nutrition, making it suitable as a breakfast or afternoon tea snack to inject full energy into the day.

👉🏻✨NUTRITIONAL ASPECTS:

  • French toast is rich in protein, fat, carbohydrates, and various vitamins and minerals. Protein helps maintain normal physiological functions of the body; fat provides energy and maintains body temperature; carbohydrates are the main source of energy; vitamins and minerals play a vital role in maintaining normal physiological functions and health. However, due to the potential addition of more sugar and butter during preparation, it is high in calories and not suitable for diabetics or those needing to control their calorie intake.
