French Toast San Francisco Style

I have grown up pretty much my whole life eating french toast made with french bread. Many times I have seen on TV and other places where 'french' toast is made with other kinds of bread. Today was my official inauguration to the other side. I used a bread that San Francisco is known for: sourdough. Oh boy, did it taste good! Here's the recipe...

  • day-old sourdough bread
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups of milk
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
Mix all these ingredients together and dunk your pieces of bread in the liquid one at a time making sure the bread is well soaked. Heat a pan or griddle on medium heat and melt a little butter in the pan. Cook your french toast a couple minutes on each side making sure not to touch your bread until you flip it! This will create an incredible crust on the edges of your toast, I have found sourdough bread produces the best crust. Once it's done cover the breakfast with your favorite syrup or some berries. Enjoy!
