Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb thick sliced bread or croissants (my preference)
4-5 large eggs
about 1/2 cup half and half
2 tsp quality vanilla
pinch of sea or kosher salt
1/3 cup raw sugar ( sub light brown , if necessary, but use raw if you can
1 tsp quality cinnamon
few tsp of butter, for frying

Directions:

In shallow pan or dish(I use a pie plate), beat eggs well.
Add half and half, vanilla and salt and whisk together well.
In a small bowl, combine the raw sugar and cinnamon. Mix to combine.
Heat a T or so of butter in a skillet or griddle over medium high heat.
Working with a few at a time, add bread slices to the egg mixture and let soak in, slightly, to each side.
Just before placing on the griddle, sprinkle one side liberally with the cinnamon/sugar mixture and place it sugar side down.
Cook until done on the first side, sprinkle upside with the cinnamon/sugar, flip, and cook until golden and cooked through.
Serve immediately.
