This Blackstone French toast is crispy, golden, and packed with cinnamon-sweet flavor. Cooking it on the griddle gives you a perfect texture and enough space to make a big batch at once. It’s the ideal breakfast for feeding a hungry crowd or enjoying a weekend brunch outdoors.
8 slices thick-cut bread (brioche or Texas toast works best)
4 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of salt
Butter or oil, for greasing the griddle
Maple syrup, powdered sugar, and fresh fruit for serving (optional)
Preheat the Blackstone griddle to medium heat.
Make the batter: In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
Dip the bread: Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides evenly. Let any excess drip off.
Grease the griddle: Lightly butter or oil the griddle surface.
Cook the French toast: Place the soaked bread slices on the griddle. Cook for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve hot: Top with butter, maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh berries if desired.
For extra richness, substitute half-and-half for the milk.
Day-old bread works best—it soaks up the batter without getting too soggy.
Add a splash of orange juice or zest to the batter for a bright flavor twist.
