Ingredients

  • 6 slices 1-inch French bread
  • 3 eggs
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 1/2 cup pecans
  • 3 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  • Finely Chop the pecans, a mini food processor works well, and place in a shallow bowl.
  • Add the eggs and milk in a shallow bowl and whisk together. Add the brown sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon and whisk until well mixed.
  • Heat skillet over medium heat. Melt a tablespoon of butter for each batch of French toast.
  • Dip slices of bread into the egg mixture one at a time. Let the excess egg mixture drip off. 
  • Place the egg coated bread into the chopped pecans. Press light until the pecans have coated the bread. Turn the bread over and repeat.
  •  Place the bread into the heated skillet and cook until the edges of the French toast is crisp and the toast is lightly browned. Flip and repeat. 
  • Make sure not to overcrowd the pan with French toast, so it cooks evenly.
