Where to find ingredients
Sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil can typically be found in the dairy, baking, or international aisles of most major grocery stores. Eggs and sugar are staples available in virtually all supermarkets. Bread is readily available in the bakery or bread aisle.
Preparation method
- Cut each slice of bread into four equal pieces
- In a deep bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk with water and vanilla extract
- Dip the bread pieces into the liquid mixture, allowing them to soak thoroughly
- Dip each moistened piece into the lightly beaten eggs
- Remove from the egg and let excess liquid drip off for a few moments
- Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat and fry the French toast, maintaining a moderate temperature so they brown evenly
- Transfer the French toast to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess grease
- Finish by dusting the warm slices with a mixture of sugar and cinnamon before serving
Observations
This recipe uses day-old sliced bread to create delicate pieces. The secret to achieving the ideal result is to ensure the bread absorbs the liquid well before frying, while controlling the temperature so they turn golden brown with the perfect texture.
