Ahhh, french toast. One of the only breakfast foods I'll eat. We have a tradition in our house of making a homemade breakfast of waffles, pancakes or french toast Saturday. This weekend it was my Vanilla French Toast.

Four large slices of sourdough bread (or brioche)
2 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 Tablespoon vanilla
(For even more vanilla flavor, use vanilla seeds from 1 vanilla bean)
Optional: Powdered sugar, maple syrup, bananas, strawberries
Combine eggs, milk and vanilla well. Dip bread in the mixture, coating well, then dripping well. Cook a few minutes on each side over medium heat. Top with powdered sugar, warm maple syrup and fruit if desired.
