bourbon

Non-alcoholic extract maintains flavor without alcohol.

milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: whole milk

Almond milk is lower in calories and dairy-free.

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil is plant-based and dairy-free.

maple syrup

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: corn syrup

Honey is a natural sweetener with a unique flavor.

Whisk the eggs, milk, and cinnamon together in a large mixing bowl until well combined.

Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter until bubbling.

Dip slices of bread into the custard mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.

Place the soaked bread onto the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove the cooked slices and set aside on a plate. Continue dipping and frying until all bread is used.

For the cinnamon syrup, combine white sugar, brown sugar, flour, ground cinnamon, water, and vanilla extract in a saucepan and mix into a slurry.

Boil the mixture, stirring constantly, then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, about 10 minutes.

Serve the French toast warm with syrup and toppings.
