My mom used to make fried french toast on special occasions, it was a family favorite. It has a nice crispy coating on the outside. I like a good loaf of thick cut French bread for this.

Time 30m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
4 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
8 slices French bread
oil, to fry

Steps:

  • Mix the flour and the baking powder together.
  • Add the eggs and mix until it a smooth paste.
  • Add milk gradually until it reaches the consistency of pancake batter.
  • Add vanilla and cinnamon.
  • Heat a frying pan with 1/2" of oil over medium heat.
  • Dip pieces of bread into the batter.
  • Gently place the bread into the oil, fry until golden on each side.
  • Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
  • Serve with warm syrup and butter.
  • I use Ming Tsai's 8-Spice Powder instead of cinnamon, it's got cinnamon, allspice, anise, cardamom, ginger, fennel, clove and cumin in it.
  • I got mine at Target, it adds a very exotic flavor.
