- 4 eggs
- 1 splash of vanilla (about a teaspoon)
- 1 teaspoon sugar, optional
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 10 to 12 slices white bread
- butter
- Eggo syrup

Break eggs into a wide, shallow bowl or pie plate; beat lightly with a fork. Stir in vanilla, sugar, salt, and milk.

Over medium-low heat, heat griddle or skillet coated with a thin layer of butter or margarine.

Place the bread slices, one at a time, into the bowl or plate, letting slices soak up egg mixture for a minute, then carefully turn to coat the other side.

Place the bread slices into the griddle or skillet, heating slowly until bottom is golden brown. Turn and brown the other side. Serve French toast hot with butter and syrup.
