Everyone loves French toast, so why not take it across the border and put a tasty twist on it? Our Mexican French Toast breaks with tradition for a novel brunch-worthy version of this favorite breakfast treat.
What You'll Need
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup milk
- 2 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 (10-inch) flour tortillas
- 4 tablespoon (1/2 stick) butter, divided
- 3 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
What to Do
-
In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, milk, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla until well blended.
-
Cut each tortilla into quarters then place in egg mixture. Gently stir to completely coat tortillas. Allow to soak 10 minutes, or until softened.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add 4 tortilla quarters and cook 4 to 5 minutes, or until golden, turning halfway through cooking. Drain on a paper towel-lined platter. Repeat with remaining butter and tortillas. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and serve immediately.
Note
-
Strawberries are the perfect topping, either fresh or frozen and thawed, along with real maple syrup.
