French Toast and American Style Pancakes

Today is one of those days I felt like having a big breakfast and as it is bank holiday I have the whole day to burn it off (at least try to).
French toast is one of those happy food that starts your day right. Adding pancakes just puts you in a celebration mood.

Ingredients for French Toast 

2 eggs
1/3 cup milk
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp cinnamon
2 thick slice bread
Butter

In a bowl whisk together the eggs, milk cinnamon and nutmeg.

Melt some butter in a frying pan on medium high heat.  Dip each bread into the egg mixture, allowing the bread to soak some of it on both sides.

Shake off the excess and place the bread in the frying pan.

Fry until browned on one side and flip over. Serve with hot butter, syrup, fruits or cream.

Ingredients for American Style Pancakes

100g self raising flour
40g caster sugar
1tsp vanilla extract
2 large eggs
300ml milk
Sunflower oil
Raspberries or Blueberries

Mix the flour, sugar, vanilla extract, eggs and milk together in a smooth batter.

Dip 2 sheets of kitchen towel in the oil and wipe the frying pan placing it on medium heat.

When hot, cook your pancakes until you see bubbles on top then flip it over.

Fry till golden and serve with the berries.

Enjoy
