I loved the addition of Parmesan cheese to the dipping mixture. It's something I never thought of and adds a savory flavor. The optional Bananas Foster topping is a must! It brings this French toast to a whole new level. So good!

BEST EVER FRENCH TOAST-BREESE WAYE INN

My parents stayed at this B&B, I think in Iowa, and brought back this recipe. This is a great breakfast for company as it can be made the night before. I made it for a choir retreat and it was a big hit. Tastes good as is as well as with maple syrup. I included the time in the refrigerator in the cooking passive time. Other than that, this really is a quick breakfast.

Time 1h10m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 eggs, beaten
12 ounces evaporated milk
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 loaf French bread
powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk together the milk and eggs until well blended.
  • Whisk in the sugar, cinnamon and vanilla making sure the sugar is completely dissolved.
  • Add the butter.
  • Slice the French Bread loaf into 3/4 inch slices and place into a 13x9 inch pan.
  • Pour egg mixture over the bread and place pan in refrigerator for at least an hour but can be overnight.
  • Heat griddle to medium and use cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking. Cook bread slices until golden brown.
  • Sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Tips:

  • Use stale bread: Stale bread absorbs more egg mixture, resulting in a richer, more flavorful French toast.
  • Slice bread evenly: Evenly sliced bread ensures that each piece cooks evenly.
  • Use a shallow dish for dipping: A shallow dish makes it easier to evenly coat the bread slices in the egg mixture.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Overcrowding the pan will prevent the French toast from cooking evenly.
  • Cook over medium heat: Medium heat prevents the French toast from burning.
  • Flip the French toast only once: Flipping the French toast too often can break it up.
  • Serve immediately: French toast is best served immediately after cooking.

Conclusion:

French toast is a delicious and versatile breakfast dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect French toast at home. Experiment with different toppings and flavors to create your own unique French toast recipes.
