Ingredients

Units Scale

Bread:

  • 4 thick slices of day-old bread (like sourdough or brioche)

Egg Mixture:

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (like parsley or chives)
  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan (optional)

For Cooking:

  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare Egg Mixture: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, chopped herbs, and Parmesan if using.
  2. Soak Bread: Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, letting it soak for 10–15 seconds per side.
  3. Cook French Toast: Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt the butter or add oil. Place soaked bread slices onto the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Notes

  • Add crumbled bacon, diced tomatoes, or shredded cheese to the egg mixture for extra flavor.
