Impressive french toast. If you have a reasonably equipped spice rack, you should be able to whip this one up anytime as long as you keep bread and eggs in the house. Feeds about two people.
Ingredients:
1. Multigrain bread (choose the kind fresh baked in the store over the pre-packaged variety)
2. Vanilla extract (It's expensive, but one bottle goes a long way. Choose organic if your budget allows or at least without artificial ingredients.)
3. Nutmeg
4. Ground Cinnamon
5. Honey (teaspoon)
6. Half and half
7. 1 egg
8. 1 tablespoon butter
9. Real maple syrup (I prefer grade B, it's heartier and less expensive)
Instructions:
1. Break an egg into a large mixing bowl
2. Add two shakes each of nutmeg and cinnamon, a capful of vanilla extract (about half a teaspoon), honey, and a splash of half and half.
3. Whisk vigorously with a fork until homogeneous
4. Heat a frying pan on medium, add butter when warm
5. Dip slices of bread into egg mixture until bread is soaked. This should only take a couple seconds for each (I use the smaller pieces toward the ends of the loaf so I can save the larger slices for sandwiches.)
6. Cook until brown on both sides
7. Serve with maple syrup
