There is nothing like a cooked breakfast to start your day and nothing says "holiday" quite like a plate of French Toast. Join Cape Cadogan for a twist on this classic dish.

Cinnamon French Toast

Ingredients:
·         1 egg
·         2 egg whites
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • dash nutmeg
  • 8 slices French bread, sliced on diagonal

Preparation:
1.       In a shallow bowl, whisk egg and egg white until foamy. Whisk in milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
2.       Heat butter in heavy skillet over medium-low heat. Dip 4 slices of bread in the egg mixture, turning to coat thoroughly. Let excess drip back into bowl.
3.       Place coated bread slices in hot skillet. Cook, turning, until both sides are nicely browned, about 2 minutes each side.
4.       Transfer to a warm plate and keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining bread and egg mixture. Serve with cinnamon sugar & maple syrup.
