Today I decided I needed to make some french toast as part of my COVID-19 comfort cooking campaign. I like to use cinnamon raisin bread (although challah is also very good). Ingredients are simple: bread, milk, eggs, vanilla and cinnamon. Powdered sugar and fresh fruit are nice finishing additions.  Maple syrup is another option. First, I made my batter, which was just the eggs, milk, vanilla and cinnamon mixed together. I soaked a slice of toast slightly on each side before cooking them with some melted butter on a pan. I cooked about four slices, most of which were stolen by my family members. Still, I enjoyed the simple breakfast and can’t wait to make it again!

First step is to make the batter. Combine eggs, milk, cinnamon and vanilla.

Then soak the bread in the batter and sautee in melted butter until browned on both sides.

Top with powdered sugar and strawberries and its a wrap. Simple and delicious (and comforting)!
