Bourbon Vanilla French Toast

Weekend brunch just got a whole lot better with this indulgent but oh-so-easy French toast recipe! A touch of bourbon brings a ton of flavor.

Ingredients :
  • 6 3/4" slices day old Wegman's challah bread, (171 grams)
  • 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk, (8 fl oz)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3 tbsp bourbon, (1.5 fl oz)
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar, (14 grams)
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Directions :
  1. Heat large skillet or griddle over medium heat for 5 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, in a casserole dish or other shallow, wide dish, beat eggs with milk, bourbon, vanilla extract, brown sugar, and cinnamon.

  3. Soak bread without oversaturating, about 30-40 seconds per side. Pick up bread and allow excess batter to drip off; repeat with remaining slices.

  4. Optional: Melt 1 tablespoon butter in hot skillet or griddle.

  5. Add prepared bread to skillet without overcrowding. Cook until golden brown, about 1 minute 45 seconds on first side and 1 minute on the second. Serve immediately.
