1Crack two large eggs into a pie plate and whisk with a fork.
2Add 1/4 cup of milk (or cream), 1 tsp of sugar, 1/4 tsp of cinnamon, a pinch of salt and a splash of vanilla extract to the pie plate and whisk until smooth.
3In a frying pan over medium-high heat, add 1 tsp of vegetable oil and 1 pat of butter.
4Dip each slice of bread into the batter, ensuring both sides are lightly coated. Let excess batter drip off before adding to the pan.
5Cook each slice of bread for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown. Add more butter and oil between batches as needed.
