Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 2 cups milk (we used reduced fat, but any variety will do)
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch ground nutmeg
- 1 to 2 pinches kosher salt
- 8 slices challah bread, ¾ inch thick
- Unsalted butter or coconut oil, for griddle
- Confectioners’ sugar for serving
- Fresh fruit for serving
Preparation
- 1. Put the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt into a medium bowl. Whisk to fully combine and pour into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
- 2. Soak half of the bread in the milk mixture, turning so both sides are saturated.
- 3. While the bread is soaking, turn on the Cuisinart® Griddler®. Select Griddle and set to 350°F.
- 4. Once preheated, put the soaked bread on the hot griddle and select the count-up timer. Cook 3½ to 4 minutes per side. Soak remaining bread while first batch of French toast is cooking.
- 5. Remove and reserve the cooked French toast in a warm oven and then repeat with remaining soaked bread.
- 6. To serve, dust with confectioners’ sugar and top with fresh fruit and maple syrup, if desired.
