    Ingredients

    • 4 slices milk bread
    • 2 eggs
    • 1/8 cup milk
    • 1 tsp sugar
    • 1 tsp honey
    • 1/8 tsp vanilla essence
    • a tiny pinch cinnamon powder optional
    • ghee / butter as required to toast

    Instructions

    • Beat both the eggs until frothy,pale and fluffy.I used my whipper blade which came with my chopper to do this.
    • Add milk and whisk it well.
    • Add sugar, honey and vanilla essence.
    • Whisk it once again until slightly frothy.
    • Dip each slice of bread in the bread egg mixture coating on both sides.
    • Heat dosa tawa,drizzle ghee add the bread slices and toast it till both sides turn golden brown.
    • Serve hot with honey and any fruits of your choice!

    Notes

    • Adjust sugar according to your taste.
    • I used milk bread so added 1 tsp sugar and 1 tsp honey which was perfect. You can replace white sugar with demerara sugar too.
    • Use nonstick pan for toasting which avoids sticking.
    • While dipping the bread slices, just dip it well so that its coated well on both sides.
    • You can serve it with maple syrup, dates syrup or a dash of honey or just have it plain too.
    • I usually do not add vanilla essence as I love the plain egg flavour but its your preference.
    • There are a lot of variations you can give to this simple bread toast – add orange zest, lemon zest for a different flavour.
    • You can make this as savory version by replacing sugar, honey with salt and pepper powder.

    Expert Tips

    • Adjust sugar according to your taste.I used milk bread so added 1 tsp sugar and 1 tsp honey which was perfect.
    • You can replace white sugar with demerara sugar too.
    • Use nonstick pan for toasting which avoids sticking.
    • While dipping the bread slices, just dip it well so that its coated well on both sides.
    • You can serve it with maple syrup, dates syrup or a dash of honey o just have it plain too.
    • I usually dont add vanilla essence as I love the plain egg flavour but its your preference.
    • There are a lot of variations you can give to this simple bread toast – add orange zest, lemon zest for a different flavour.
    • You can make this as savory version by replacing sugar,honey with salt and pepper powder.
    • If you dont have custard powder then add cornflour and vanilla essence which will give the same flavour.
    • While dipping the bread dont leave it for more time , just a fraction of second for each side of the bread else the bread slices would become mushy and stick to the pan.
    • Preferably use a nonstick dosa tawa so that it doesnt stick.
    • The actual french toast rollups is with eggs but I made it eggles no specific reason just felt to make it eggless thats it.You can very well replace the custard powder milk mixture with just eggs and vanilla essence.
    • Adjust sugar according to your taste.I used milk bread so I skipped any sugar to the milk mixture.As we have sugar coating it was apt.
    • You can replace white sugar with demerara sugar too.
    • Mittu is not fond of cinnamon flavour so I added coco powder but its your preference purely.
    • While dipping the bread slices, just dip it well so that its coated well on both sides.Don’t let it rest then it will become soggy and will start sticking to the pan.
    • You can add any filling of your choice nutella or cheese or peanut butter or with any fruits too.
    • I used mixed fruit jam you can use any favorite filling.

      I’ve heard people use Mayonnaise instead of Egg, some people even using Butter instead. Are they viable substitutes or is Egg the best choice when making French Toast?
