Instructions
Melt a few Tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-heat.
In a large shallow bowl or pie plate, whisk the eggs and egg yolks until well combined. Add in the cinnamon, nutmeg, and both sugars, and whisk until well combined. Finally, whisk in the milk, heavy cream, and vanilla.
Dip as many slices of bread into the egg mixture as possible, allowing each side to soak up the mixture for about 2 minutes.
Place the soaked bread slices into prepared skillet and cook until the undersides are golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip, and continue cooking on the other side until equally golden brown, about another 3 to 4 minutes. Continue with all french toast, adding more butter to the pan as needed.
Serve warm, with maple syrup and fresh berries!
How to Keep French Toast Warm:
Preheat your oven to its lowest setting, around 150 degrees (F) to 200 degrees (F).
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, or place a wire rack on top of it. Then place your French toast slices on the baking sheet as you cook them, and keep them warm in the oven as you continue cooking.
You can leave them in there for up to 20 minutes before they start drying out.
For French toast casseroles, you can simply cover the pan with foil and keep them in the oven until you’re ready to serve. Just remember, after 20 minutes or so, they’ll start to dry out.
