Warm Vanilla French Toast Recipe (On Croissant Bread)
French toast is a classic breakfast dish that has been enjoyed for centuries. This simple yet delicious recipe has evolved over time, with countless variations and additions to make it even more tasty. One such variation is my Warm Vanilla French Toast Recipe, which is sure to become a family favorite in no time!
This recipe is the best French toast recipe out there, and is perfect for lazy weekend mornings. Made with a loaf of croissant bread, vanilla oat milk, heavy whipping cream, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, sugar, butter, and powdered sugar, this recipe takes French toast to the next level. The combination of vanilla and cinnamon adds a sweet, warm flavor, while the croissant bread provides a buttery, flaky texture that will make your taste buds sing.
To make this recipe, start by whisking together the egg mixture in a large shallow bowl. This mixture consists of vanilla oat milk, heavy whipping cream, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar. The vanilla oat milk adds a subtle vanilla flavor to the dish, while the heavy whipping cream adds a rich, creamy texture. The cinnamon and sugar provide a sweet and warm flavor that is perfect for breakfast.
Once the egg mixture is whisked together, it's time to start cooking the French toast. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, and then tilt the pan to coat it in melted butter. Dip each slice of croissant bread into the egg mixture, making sure to coat each side evenly. Immediately place the bread into the hot skillet and cook for about 2 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Remove the French toast from the skillet and let it rest for a minute or two. Repeat the process with the remaining slices of bread, making sure to butter the skillet between each slice. Once all the French toast is cooked, dust it with powdered sugar and serve warm with maple syrup or strawberry jam.

But why stop at this recipe? Here are some other tips and tricks to take your French toast game to the next level:
Use different types of bread. While croissant bread is delicious in this recipe, you can also use brioche, challah, or even a hearty whole wheat bread for a different flavor and texture.
Add in some fruit. Fresh fruit like strawberries, blueberries, or bananas make a great addition to French toast. You can also mix in some apple or pumpkin puree for a seasonal twist.
Top it off with whipped cream. Whipped cream adds a light and airy texture to French toast and makes it feel like a special treat.
Make it a savory dish. Who says French toast has to be sweet? Try adding in some herbs like thyme or rosemary and topping it off with some bacon or sausage for a savory twist.
