A warmly spiced, custardy french toast recipe that is perfect for a weekend morning.
Combine 3 large eggs, 3 egg yolks, 1/2 cup of half and half, 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg, a pinch of salt and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract in a shallow bowl and whisk until fully combined
Place a wide skillet or flat griddle over medium heat and grease with butter or non-stick spray
Soak the bread for about 30 seconds per side in the egg mixture and transfer onto the warm, greased griddle
Cook for about 2 minutes on the first side and once the underside is golden brown, flip the bread and cook for another 2 minutes or until both sides are golden brown and lightly caramelized
Transfer the french toast onto plates, top with fresh fruit and a dusting of confectioners sugar
Serve warm with maple syrup
