Prep Time:5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4 slices thick bread (brioche or Texas toast works best)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp butter (for cooking) I use real butter. I f I can find it I buy Amish butter but if now I use the Irish or the New Zealand Butter. It makes everything taste so much better.

Toppings

  • 1 banana, sliced
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • Maple syrup or honey
  • Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  • In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar until well combined.
  • Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface.
  • Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are coated but not overly soaked.
  • Place the bread on the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and stack or plate as desired.
  • Top with sliced bananas, fresh blueberries, a drizzle of maple syrup or honey, and a light dusting of powdered sugar.
  • Serve warm and enjoy a breakfast that feels like a slow morning, even when it is not.
