    Ingredients

    * 2 slices of bread
    * *Preferably brioche, as it is naturally sweeter and more soft*
    * 2 egg yolks
    * 1 tbsp Demerara sugar – OR – brown sugar
    * 1/4 cup (60ml) milk
    * *I used skim milk, but whole milk does taste better!*
    * 1 tbsp maple syrup
    * 1 tsp cinnamon
    * 1 tsp vanilla extract
    * 2 squares of butter
    * *I usually use one square of butter per slice of brioche*
    * *One square of butter = Length/ Height = 1 inch |Width = 1/4 inch*
    * Suggested toppings: chocolate sauce, Nutella, raspberries, blueberries, whipped cream, 1 banana, etc…

    Directions

    1. Using two bowls, separate 2 egg whites from the 2 egg yolks (put the egg whites aside for a different recipe)
    2. Whisk the 2 egg yolks until they become frothy
    3. Add in 1 tbsp brown sugar, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tbsp maple syrup, 1/4 cup (60ml) milk and gently whisk the new mixture together
    4. Dip in one slice of the gluten-free bread (preferable brioche).
    5. Make sure to coat both sides of the slice in the mixture!
    6. Turn on your stovetop, and in a saucepan on low-heat, add 1 square of butter
    7. When the butter in the saucepan begins to melt, make sure to tilt the saucepan so it coats the entire surface
    8. Add in the first slice of bread
    9. Cook the bread for about 2 minutes (on low heat) and flip with a spatula
    10. Cook the bread for another two minutes, and flip again to repeat step 9/ 10 if necessary
    11. When the bread has become golden and toasted, remove the slice from the pan and onto a plate
    12. Pour some maple syrup onto the French Toast, and top it with pieces of a sliced banana
    13. Repeat steps 6-12 with the other slice of bread, and enjoy!
