Doughnut French Toast (Nigella Lawson)

Any variety for French toast, I'd give a try
Ian loves French toast so much he asks for it almost every weekend
While he's always happy with the same usual kind, his mummy gets very bored with it, a little twist here and there each time will be great :)

Nigella has a few variations for French toast. Let me try with this one first :)

Well, nothing fancy about this French toast actually. The same way of making, minus the sugar. Once ready, immediately dip in sugar and eat
Nevertheless, it's still a good thing. French toast won't fail you, will it? :)

Recipe is from HERE

What you need:

2 large eggs
4 tsp vanilla extract                                               
60 ml full fat milk                                               
4 slices white bread (I used thick toast, halved)                                                         25g butter                                               
1 drop vegetable oil for frying               
50g caster sugar (I used icing sugar)

Method:

1. Beat the eggs with the milk and vanilla in a wide, shallow bowl
2. Soak the bread halves in the eggy mixture for 5 minutes a side
3. Heat the butter and oil in a frying pan, and fry the egg-soaked bread until golden and scorched in parts on both sides
4. Put the sugar on a plate and then dip the cooked bread in it until coated like a sugared doughnut
