Ingredients
3 extra-large eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 slices of Challah , cut ¾ inch thick
Warm pure maple syrup, for serving
Directions
- In a medium shallow baking dish or bowl, beat the eggs with the milk, cinnamon, vanilla, and nutmeg until blended. Working with 1 challah slice at a time, soak the bread in the egg mixture, turning it several times.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large heavy skillet until bubbling. Add 2 of the soaked challah slices and cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Turn and cook until golden brown on the second side, about 2 minutes longer. Repeat with the remaining egg-soaked challah. Serve hot with maple syrup.
Yield: Four servings
