Single Serving French Toast

Madison loves french toast and asks me to make it for her very often. No one else in the family eats it, so I just make a small recipe to feed her. Sometimes I can make two pieces and sometimes I can make three pieces of french toast - it depends on how much milk I add. Madison eats 2 pieces and I save the third in the refrigerator.

This is my recipe for a single serving of french toast.

Crack one egg into a shallow bowl.

Lightly beat egg with a fork.

Add some milk or cream, about 1/2 cup.

Stir.

 Add a drizzle of maple syrup for sweetness, and a dash of vanilla for flavor.

Next add cinnamon, 1/4 to 1/2 tsp, and stir.

Heat pan over medium heat. Add butter.

Dip one piece of bread in egg mixture...

...then flip over.

Put bread in pan, and repeat dipping next piece of bread and putting in the pan.

Turn heat to medium-low.

Let the pieces cook until golden brown, then flip over.

Cook other side until golden brown.

Transfer to a plate and top with butter & maple syrup.

The last thing I do special for Madison is sprinkle a little bit of cinnamon sugar on top after it's all cut up.
