Description
A delicious twist on classic French toast using cinnamon swirl bread and topped with a sweet vanilla glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 slices of cinnamon swirl bread
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg until smooth.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add butter or a little oil.
- Dip each slice of cinnamon swirl bread into the custard mixture, coating both sides. Let excess drip off.
