Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 English muffins, split in half
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter, for cooking

Instructions

  1. Prepare the egg mixture: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and ground cinnamon until well combined, creating a smooth custard mixture.
  2. Dip the muffins: Take each English muffin half and dip it into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak briefly on each side to absorb the flavors without becoming overly soggy.
  3. Heat the skillet: Place a skillet or frying pan on medium heat and melt the butter, ensuring the surface is evenly coated to prevent sticking.
  4. Cook the French toast: Place the dipped English muffins onto the buttered skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until each side is golden brown and slightly crispy.
  5. Serve: Remove from the skillet and serve warm with your choice of toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or powdered sugar.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a splash of vanilla extract to the egg mixture.
  • Use whole milk for a richer texture or a dairy-free milk alternative if preferred.
  • Cook on medium heat to avoid burning while ensuring the inside cooks through.
  • Double the recipe easily for more servings.
  • Leftover French toast can be refrigerated and reheated in a toaster or skillet.
