To make the buttermilk:

  • 1 Cup Milk
  • 1 Tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar

To make the custard:

  • 3 XL Eggs
  • 3 Tablespoons Brown sugar or white sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/8 Teaspoon Nutmeg ( optional )
  • Pinch of salt

To use on the griddle:

Instructions

  • Make some homemade buttermilk. In a bowl add the milk and apple cider vinegar. Stir and let sit for 5 minutes.
  • In a bowl crack the eggs and whisk. Then pour the buttermilk in with the beaten eggs and whisk. Add in the brown sugar and whisk. Add in a pinch of salt, vanilla extract and the ground cinnamon. Whisk to combine.
  • Transfer the egg mixture to a baking dish.
  • Butter the griddle and turn the heat on to Medium.
  • Once the griddle is hot, dunk the bread into the egg mixture .
  • Then flip the bread over . Do not over saturate the bread. Let some of the egg mixture drip off of the bread before placing it onto the griddle.
  • Each time BEFORE placing a new slice of bread into the egg mixture, be sure to add 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon first otherwise the next slice of bread may not have any cinnamon on it.
  • Once you have placed the bread onto the hot pan immediately reduce the heat to Medium Low.
  • Move the bread around the pan so that it browns evenly and cook it until it is nicely browned. It should take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Then flip the bread over and again move the bread around the pan to brown evenly. Once both sides of the bread is nicely browned, transfer to a plate.
  • Top with your choice of fruit: strawberries, blue berries, bananas
  • Sprinkle on some powdered sugar and serve with maple syrup.
  • Serve immediately.
