Create a Cozy Home Cafe Experience: Simple and Delicious French Toast Recipe
Hello everyone! This is Gina, your cooking enthusiast. Are you busy preparing snacks for the kids during holidays or weekends? I’ve brought you a popular snack recipe that’s perfect for your little ones’ taste buds. Bread is such a versatile snack, isn’t it? They enjoy it simply with jam, or you can even hide veggies inside and make sandwiches they’ll devour! 🙂 Today, we’re making French toast, a dish loved by kids for its incredibly soft texture and a touch of sweetness. Let’s get started!
Key Ingredients- 6 slices of bread (Thicker slices work best)
- 2 large eggs
- Generous amount of butter (for frying)
- 1 Tbsp honey (for drizzling)
- 100ml milk
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the base for our delicious French toast. Take 6 slices of bread. If you’re using standard-sized bread, slicing 3 pieces in half will give you about 6 slices. Feel free to adjust the size according to your preference. For this recipe, we’ll take 3 slices of bread and trim off the crusts for a softer bite.
Step 2
Next, cut each bread slice in half. Cutting them in half makes it easier to soak the egg mixture evenly and thoroughly.
Step 3
Now, let’s create our luscious custard mixture. Crack 2 large eggs into a bowl. Add 100ml of milk and whisk gently until well combined and smooth. The milk will ensure a wonderfully moist and tender French toast.
Step 4
Dip the prepared bread slices into the egg mixture. Make sure to coat all sides – the top, bottom, and edges – by turning them gently. Allow the bread to absorb the custard mixture thoroughly, ensuring every part is well-soaked.
Step 5
For an even softer texture, it’s a great idea to let the soaked bread slices rest in the refrigerator for a little while. This allows the custard to penetrate deeply into the bread, much like a sponge, resulting in an incredibly soft and fluffy interior. Even 5 minutes can make a difference!
Step 6
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat. Melt a generous amount of butter until it’s shimmering. Carefully place the soaked bread slices into the pan. Cooking over low heat is crucial to prevent the outside from burning before the inside is cooked through.
Step 7
Gently turn the French toast, cooking it on all sides until it’s beautifully golden brown. As it cooks, you’ll notice the bread puffing up slightly, becoming wonderfully soft and fluffy. Continue cooking until each side is perfectly golden and the toast feels light and airy.
Step 8
Finally, drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey over the perfectly cooked French toast. This adds a delightful touch of sweetness and completes this melt-in-your-mouth, fluffy ‘Tokyo Style’ French toast that everyone will adore! Serve warm on a pretty plate and enjoy!
