Step 1

Preheat an electric skillet for medium low heat at 325 degrees F.

Step 2

Whisk the egg, milk, vanilla, sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a shallow bowl or dish big enough for bread to lie flat.

Step 3

Add 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet until melted.

Step 4

Dip each Texas toast bread slice into the egg mixture, flipping them over to just coat both sides. Don't let the bread soak in the mixture.

Step 5

Place the coated bread slices in the pan and fry about 4 – 5 minutes per side.

Step 6

Serve topped with pats of butter and syrup or your favorite toppings.
