This recipe was from when I lived in New Orleans longer ago than I care to think about. A nice, fun variation on French toast!
1 cup milk
2 large eggs, well beaten
¼ cup sugar
¼ teaspoon vanilla
4 slices (about 1¼” thick) stale French bread
2 Tablespoons butter
2 Tablespoons oil
½ teaspoon cinnamon mixed with 2 teaspoons powdered sugar
In a large bowl combine the milk, eggs, sugar and vanilla and mix thoroughly.
Soak the bread in this mixture for a few minutes.
Melt the butter in a heavy skillet and add the oil.
When the butter/oil mixture is hot, fry the soaked bread slices 1 or 2 at a time until golden brown on each side.
Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar just before serving.
