Ingredients
  

  • 6 whole eggs
  • 1 ½ cups half and half or whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon fine sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • teaspoons freshly ground nutmeg
  • 6 thick slices of white sandwich bread or challah
  • 4 tablespoons butter softened
  • 4 tablespoons canola oil
  • pure maple syrup or powdered sugar

Instructions
 

  • In a large, shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg.
  • Place the bread slices in the mixture and keep turning over until all the slices are soaked.
  • Set aside while you preheat your grill.
  • Preheat your Foreman Grill to high with the top closed.
  • While the grill is heating up, whisk together the butter and oil in a small bowl.
  • Brush both plates of the grill generously with the butter and oil mixture.
  • Place as many slices of bread on the grill that will fit and close the top.
  • Grill until golden brown and a little crispy, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat until all the bread is grilled.
  • Serve the toast with maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar and a side of grilled bacon.

Notes

  • Feel free to experiment with different types of bread like whole-grain and gluten-free bread. Many recipes call for brioche, challah, or sourdough bread. It should be sliced thickly and preferably day old.
