French Toast Recipe – A breakfast favorite! Homemade french toast is so easy to make and is absolutely delicious! Top with a drizzle of syrup, butter and a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
French toast is one of my favorite breakfast treats. It’s always so delicious and is super simple to make. My recipe only takes about 20 minutes from start to finish which is amazing!
This recipe is great for busy weekends or weekday mornings because it is so quick and easy to whip up! There are so many different toppings you can add to your french toast.
Top french toast with fresh fruit like berries or bananas. You can drizzle chocolate syrup on top or keep it simple with the classic – maple syrup.
Crisp up some bacon, sausage or ham to serve with your french toast! You can also fry up or scramble eggs to serve with your toast. Either way you can’t go wrong.
This recipe makes 8 thick cut slices of french toast which serves about 4 people. If you are cooking for a smaller crowd, you can half the recipe. Or you can double the recipe if cooking for a large crowd.

How to make my super easy french toast recipe:
In a baking dish or any other semi deep bowl: mix eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and milk.
