Momma's French Toast

This is the french toast my Mother made; comfort food to me.

8 slices white bread, cut in half.

Mix 1 cup flour
1 1/2 tsps sugar & baking powder
1/2 tsp salt & cinnamon

Mix 1 cup milk
1 egg

Poor milk into flour mixture, beating until smooth.
Heat oil in a frying pan until hot. (Add a drop of the batter, it should rise to the top of the oil.) Dip bread into batter, and place into hot oil. Turn when golden underneath, and cook the second side. Drain on a plate with paper towels.
Have butter and syrup ready.

Serve with fresh fruit and bacon or sausage.
