Equipment

Ingredients

9 large eggs ($1.08)
1 cup milk ($0.20)
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon ($0.24)
2 tablespoons vanilla extract ($0.19)
22 slices sandwich bread, about 1 loaf ($1.32)

Instructions

Preheat. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease.
Mix custard. Add eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla to a blender, food processor, or large bowl. Mix until no egg streaks remain.
Dip bread. Pour mixture into a shallow bowl. Dip bread slices one at a time, flipping to coat both sides.
Cook. Place bread directly onto the preheated skillet. Cook 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown.
Freeze. Transfer cooked French toast to a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze until solid.
Store. Move frozen slices to an airtight container or gallon-size freezer bag. Freeze up to 2 months.
Reheat. Microwave frozen slices for about 30 seconds per slice, without overlapping.
Serve. Add your favorite toppings and enjoy.

Notes

Milk Options. Any milk works, including dairy-free, whole, or low-fat.
Pan Prep. A fully preheated skillet helps the French toast cook evenly and brown properly.
Reheating. One slice takes about 30 seconds in the microwave. Two slices take about 1 minute. Avoid stacking so heat distributes evenly.
