1/2 C. Milk
1 tsp. Vanilla
3 T. All purpose flour

1/8 tsp. Salt
3 tsp. Butter
6 slices thick sliced French bread
1 T. Powdered sugar
On the side: Butter and pancake syrup.

Beat the eggs in a large shallow bowl. Add the milk, flour, and salt to the eggs. Beat the mixture with an electric mixer. Be sure all the flour is well combined. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. When the surface is hot, add about 1 tsp butter. Dip the bread one slice at a time into the batter, be sure to coat each side well. Drop the bread into the hot pan, as many as will fit comfortably at one time. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until surface is golden. Cut slices diagonally in two, arrange halves on plate, overlapping. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve butter and syrup on the side.
