1/2 to 3/4 cup half & half (I used milk)
3 large eggs
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoons rum
Pinch of salt
6-8 slices of french bread, slightly stale and cut thickly
Directions: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the half & half, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, rum, and salt. Soak bread slices in egg mixture for at least 4 to 5 minutes. Do not soak more bread than you have griddle space for at one time. Lightly oil and heat a large griddle or heavy skillet on medium-high. Place the soaked bread on the griddle and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until French toast is a light golden brown. Serve hot with maple syrup, butter, or powdered sugar (or all three!) with a side of fresh fruit.
