Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Serving size: 4 slices
Ingredients:
- 4 slices of Irish soda bread
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon (optional)
- Butter for frying
- Maple syrup or powdered sugar for topping
Instructions:
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon (if using).
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and add a bit of butter to prevent sticking.
Dip a slice of Irish soda bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated, and allow excess to drip off.
Place the coated slice on the hot skillet and cook until it’s golden brown on both sides. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
Repeat the process with the remaining soda bread slices, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Once all slices are cooked, serve them hot with a drizzle of maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar.
