Ingredients

8 medium eggs
4 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground mace
1/2 teaspoon sugar
pinch of anise seed
1 tablespoon butter
1 loaf of challah bread, cut into 6 or so large 1/2-inch-thick slices
pinch of confectioners' sugar

Directions

Whisk the eggs, milk, and spices together until just frothy. Melt half the butter in a large skillet and, working in batches, soak the bread briefly in the egg mixture, turning over so both sides are coated.
Shake off any extra liquid and place on a griddle over medium heat. Cook 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Dust with confectioners' sugar and top with pure maple syrup.
