  • For the French toast:
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • nutmeg, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter, plus more, to taste
  • 1 (7-inch) store-bought angel food cake, sliced

Step 1 -In a shallow dish, add the eggs, the milk, the vanilla, the cinnamon, and the nutmeg and whisk to combine.

Step 2 -In a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter.
