Challah French Toast

• servings: 4 servings
• total time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

3 extra-large eggs

1/2 cup milk

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg

2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Four 3/4 -inch-thick slices of Braided Challah, Loaf Pan Challah or Raisin Challah with a Cinnamon Swirl

Warm pure maple syrup, for serving

Directions

Gather ingredients.

In a medium shallow baking dish or bowl, beat eggs with milk, cinnamon, vanilla, and nutmeg until blended.

Working with one challah slice at a time, soak bread in egg mixture, turning several times.

Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium-low until bubbling. Add two of the soaked challah slices and cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Turn and cook until golden brown on the second side, about 2 minutes longer. Repeat with remaining egg-soaked challah.

Serve hot with maple syrup.
