Ingredients

• 2 large eggs
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Crack the eggs into a bowl
2. Add the milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon and beat with the fork until combined.
3. Put the skillet on the stove, add the oil or butter, and turn the heat to medium.
4. Dip the bread, one slice at a time, into the egg mixture, coating both sides of each slice. If there is too much egg mixture on the bread, let it drip back into the bowl.

6. Repeat with the remaining bread. Serve right away drizzled with maple syrup.
