Figgy French Toast

Let's Cook

1. Step 1.

   In a shallow baking dish or bowl, combine 2 eggs, ⅔ cup milk, ¼ to ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt. Whisk until smooth and well blended.

2. Step 2.

   Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Lightly coat the surface with 1 teaspoon unsalted butter or oil.

3. Step 3.

   Place 6 (1-inch-thick) slices of Orange, Pecan, and Fig Sourdough Batard into the egg mixture. Let the slices soak for 1 to 2 minutes per side, allowing them to absorb the liquid.

4. Step 4.

   Using a large fork, transfer the soaked bread slices to the hot skillet or griddle. Cook for about 1 minute on each side, until nicely browned and slightly crisp on the outside.

5. Step 5.

   Serve the French toast hot. Optionally, top with additional butter, a splash of maple syrup, or 1 cup fresh berries.
