French Toast on a Saturday

(Following links on this blog may result in my earning a small fee. As an Amazon associate I may earn from qualifying purchases.)

I saw our bread was getting slightly stale, so I decided to make French toast this morning. Hit me with your favorite French toast recipes! 

My usual is:

🍞 Bread that’s getting a little stale

🥚Egg (can stretch with egg whites too)

🥛Milk or half n half (whatever I’ve got)

 🍨Vanilla extract or other flavor (I’ve used pumpkin, orange, strawberry...)

🫚Cinnamon (or some other spice blend like apple pie spice, pumpkin pie spice, etc.)

🥣crushed corn flakes or other cereal if you want a crust after dipping in the egg mixture

Soaking in my grandmother's Jadeite bowl

You know the drill: mix it all in a shallow dish and then dip/soak the bread. If you want a crust, then dip in the crushed cereal. Then onto a hot griddle, cook, flip, cook some more.

For two people I can stretch 1 egg by adding egg whites and the milk, plus it’s slightly less fat if you watch that stuff, but let's not fool ourselves: It’s French toast. It’s not going to be healthy. Carbs turn to fat. 😅 I like to serve it with a sausage patty. 

Anyway, what’s your favorite way to make French toast?

It may not be beautiful, but it was delish!
