Ramadan Mubarak!
As many of you know, the Muslim holy month of Ramadan has officially started. It’s in this month that Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset, in an effort to become more spiritual and reflective of oneself. The pre-sunrise meal is called suhoor and the sunset meal where one breaks their fast is called iftar. I personally prefer a light suhoor, but my husband on the other hand enjoys a heavier meal. Today’s recipe is my favorite way to make french toast, which I just might decide to whip up for suhoor one of these days 😉
French Toast
Ingredients
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup full-fat or reduced-fat milk
- 3 large eggs
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 8 slices of thick sliced bread (brioche or sourdough)
Instructions
-
Add flour to a bowl and slowly whisk in the milk. Mix in the remaining ingredients until everything is incorporated.
-
Heat a lightly greased pan over medium low heat. Dip each slice of bread in the mixture, making sure both sides are coated. Cook the french toast until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes on each side.

Growing up my mom would make french toast when we were growing up..but….she would put adrak laysan and lal mirchi and I would eat it with ketchup…growing up this is how we thought french toast was supposed to be…then one day at burger king we ordered french toast and were shocked that is was sweet…we were like what did they do….they screwed it up 🙂 I’ve never made a sweet version…will have to give yours a try..right after making the cinnamon bread!

Tried this today because of se brioche bread we had on hand, and man!! I thought the flour might be weird, but it turned out amazing!! Hubby likes it a little sweeter so I added an extra tbsp of sugar but it tasted perfect for me!! Keeper of a recipe

Thank you so much for your feedback! And I totally hear you on it being weird to add flour to the batter, but it really ups the end result!
