Snow Day French Toast

Try using cinnamon-raisin English muffins for this nutmeg-spiked French toast delight. The many little air pockets will fill up with batter, and your toast will be tender and rich. Dip the battered bread in sugar before frying, and serve with old-fashioned maple syrup.

Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 cup white sugar
• ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup milk
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 6 slices raisin bread

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Mix eggs, milk, salt, and nutmeg together with a fork, until the whole mixture is pale yellow. Pour this into a low, flat pan or a large, shallow dish.

Step 2

If you are using English muffins, cut them in half so that you have six halves. Let the halves or the slices of bread soak on each side in the egg mixture. Spread a layer of granulated sugar on a plate, and dip both sides of the bread in sugar.

Step 3

Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Put about half a tablespoon of butter in the pan, and let it melt. Place two muffin halves or slices of bread in the pan. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Wipe old butter out of pan, and repeat with remaining slices of bread.
