Fluffy French Toast

Zach HATES French Toast. I always fight with him to eat it when I make it. Last night was a busy soccer night and I thought I would try this quick and easy recipe for it. I made eggs to go with it and was planning on having Zach just eat those, but when he came in he said it smelled so good he had to try them. He LOVED them. We put homemade jelly on them and they turned out a lot like jelly filled donuts. YUMMY!!! Try these out.

  • 2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • 1 cup Flour
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 1-¾ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Sugar
  • ⅛ teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • ½ teaspoons Maple Flavoring (Optional, See Note Below)
  • 10 slices Bread, Your Choice

Note: if you do not use the maple flavoring, add an extra 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and brush on just enough vegetable oil to coat the entire skillet. Whisk together all the dry ingredients, and in a separate bowl, mix together all the wet ingredients. Combine the wet and dry ingredients; stir until just combined. Pour the batter into an 8×8 square baking dish and dip single pieces of bread into the batter, flipping to coat both sides. Place immediately on the hot skillet. Flip when browned and brown the other side.

Serve immediately. Enjoy!
