Learning how professional chefs make meals at home has been one of the bonuses of the California Stay Home Order. One of my favorite chefs is Eric Ripert, and one of my favorite breakfast treats is French Toast so of course I had to try his method!
I started with organic thick sliced gourmet white bread from Trader Joe's. Since it was fresh, I dried it out in a toaster oven set at 150 F for about 15 minutes, so that it wasn't toasted, buy had a slightly "dry" top texture like stale bread.
I spooned oat milk all over the slice
then I spooned a beaten egg over the milk
(it takes about 1 beaten egg per 2 slices of bread)
then I spooned some raw vanilla sugar over the egg.
I melted butter in a nonstick pan over medium low heat and placed the prepared bread slices face down in the pan. While you are cooking the prepared side, repeat the mild, egg, and sugar process on the exposed side. Turn over after a few minutes.There is no need for syrup since the sugar caramelizes, but you may want to add some fresh berries or a side of bacon or sausage :)
Bon appétit!
