Challah French Toast

-


Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup half and half
  • ¼ cup orange juice
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • ½ challah loaf sliced into 4 thick slices
  • Maple syrup, powdered sugar and fruit for serving

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until the yolks and whites are fully incorporated. Whisk in the milk, orange juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Transfer to measuring cup.
  2. Melt ½ tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pour half of the egg mixture into a large deep plate. Coat two slices of challah on both sides with the egg mixture until it is mostly absorbed, then carefully transfer them to the pan. Cook the first side until golden brown, about 2 minutes, then add another ½ tablespoon butter to the pan. When it’s melted, flip the bread and cook until golden brown on the second side, another 2 minutes or so. 
  3. Repeat with remaining butter, bread, and egg mixture.

Quick & Easy Pancakes

Ingredients: 1 egg 1 cup milk 2 Tbsp oil 1 tsp vanilla 1 cup sifted self-rising flour Instructions: In medium bowl, beat egg with wire whisk until fluffy. Stir in remaining ingredients just until flour is moistened (batter will be slightly lumpy); do not overmix or pancakes will be tough. For thinner pancakes, stir in additional 1 to 2 tablespoons milk.  Heat griddle at 375°F until drops of water sprinkled on it evaporate noisily.  Working in batches, pour 1/8 cup batter (or 1/4 cup for larger pancakes) onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles begin to form on top, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 1 more minute.
