About 2 minutes on each side. Use your favorite syrup or fruit. I always triple this for the eight of us who eat it. Ready to eat.
1 egg
1/4 c. milk
1 t. sugar
dash of salt
dash of cinnamon

4 slices of bread
In a med. flat bottomed bowl combine all but the last ingredient. Beat for 30 sec. Butter a griddle to 325 or frying pan and wait for it to get hot on med. high heat. When griddle is ready. Dip bread in egg mixture, flip to soak the other side and quickly place on griddle or in frying pan. Cook 2 minutes on each side. Serve with your favorite syrup. This feeds one maybe two people, if you only want two each. For my family, I have to add five more times the amount.
