Maple and Vanilla French Toast

Cultural Context

French toast, known as "pain perdu" in France, has roots dating back to ancient times when stale bread was soaked in a mixture of eggs and milk to avoid waste. This dish has become a beloved breakfast staple in many cultures, often enjoyed on weekends and special occasions. In Canada, the addition of maple syrup highlights the country's rich tradition of maple production, making it a quintessential Canadian breakfast.

Measure a capful of vanilla extract and add it to the egg mixture.

9

Dip the slices of bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides.

10

Place the coated bread in the heated pan and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes on one side.

Check for doneness; the bread should not be spongy or wet when flipped.

Flip the bread and cook the other side for another 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown.

If there's leftover egg batter, pour it over the cooking slices to maximize protein content.
