• 1 tablespoon powdered sugar

 Preparation

1) Combine first 5 ingredients in shallow dish.

2) Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Working with 4 bread slices at a time, place bread slices in milk mixture, quickly turning to coat both sides. remove bread slices from milk mixture.

3) Add bread slices to pan and cook for 2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned.

4) Remove toast from pan. Repeat procedure with cooking spray, remaining 8 bread slices, and remaining milk mixture.

5) Sprinkle powdered sugar evenly over toast.

There's nothing more delightful than maple-glazed french toast on a cold wintry morning. The secret behind the recipe is a hint of syrup in the egg wash that subtly infuses the bread with maple. Maple-glazed french toast is a completely stress-free cooking experience and a pure delight to eat.

This edition of Cooking Light (2009) also includes a recipe for Cinnamon-Maple Applesauce that can be spread atop the toast. I am topping my maple-glazed french toast with more maple syrup. Enjoy!
