Ooo La La...qui qui Mademoiselle

Can you smell it? The sweet smell of French Toast?

My 5 year old every once in a while demands that I make him "cooked egg bread"...lol. I never can turn that one down. Sometimes when I feel all fancy-like, I will make a great baked version, but that is when I have loads of time and ingredients on hand. For the "I want it NOW" moments, I make this one:

Frenchy-poo Toast

6 slices of real french bread, sliced off the loaf, medium-thick

4-6 large eggs

1/2 & 1/2

Milk

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp orange zest

1/2 tsp real maple syrup

1/4 cup butter

Heat butter in large skillet. Whip remaining ingredients together. Dip slices in mixture and cook on HOT skillet, until each side is firm and golden brown. Serve very warm with additional maple syrup and powdered sugar, if desired.

pinch of salt
