Butter French Toast

This morning was the first snowfall of the season.  I decided to make the kids a treat, French Toast.  We almost never have bread in our house, but I happened to have some  Bakers Field's Whole Wheat bread around and thought... 'what the heck.'

The problem is that we didn't have any milk.  But I know something even better than milk: BUTTER.

Ingredients

• Bread, sliced
• 2-3 eggs
• 3-5 Tablespoons of melted butter
• A few shakes of ground cinnamon
• Dash of vanilla extract ( make your own!) 

Instructions

1. Heat a heavy pan or griddle to med-high heat
2. Add eggs to a small bowl and beat well
3. Whisk/stir in the butter, cinnamon and vanilla
4. Soak the bread briefly into the mixture
5. Butter the pan/griddle well
6. Fry the bread on the butter until golden brown and flip

You can of course add any topping you'd like: whipped cream, syrup, strawberries, jam of any sort, etc.
