1. Beat eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, sugar and a pinch of salt in a mixing
bowl until well combined and slightly fluffy. Whisk in milk and then
transfer the egg mixture to a shallow dish.
2. Dip the bread slices in the egg mixture and let soak on each side for
a few minutes until well saturated but not too soggy. When transferring
the soaked bread to the skillet for cooking, be sure to let any excess
egg mixture drip back into the shallow dish.
3. Cook the soaked bread slices on a lightly buttered nonstick griddle
or skillet over medium heat until golden brown on both sides, about 1-2
minutes per side.
4. Transfer the cooked French toast to a baking sheet in a 250°F warming
oven to keep warm while you cook the remaining soaked bread slices.
