Easy French Toast

Like I have mentioned before, we LOVE breakfast. Anyway, this recipe is simple enough for us to put together and we think it's a keeper.

INGREDIENTS:
2 eggs, lightly beaten
½ cup milk
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 slices dry white or whole wheat bread
1 tablespoons butter or vegetable oil
Maple syrup

DIRECTIONS:
1.In a shallow bowl, beat together eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. Dip bread slices into egg mixture, coating both sides.

2.In a very large skillet or on a griddle, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium heat. Add half of the bread slices and cook for 4 to 6 minutes or until golden, turning once. Repeat with remaining bread slices and the remaining butter. Serve with maple syrup.

YIELD: 4 servings

This is how one of the the French Toasts turned out: it's heart-shaped! I was quite pleased :)
