For many, French toast is the ultimate in breakfast comfort food: thick slices of eggy bread, browned to perfection, and slathered in butter and syrup. But getting the right level of crispiness can be tricky. Cook it too long, and the interior will dry out. Cook it too short, and the center will be mushy. But with the right recipe, you can achieve that perfect balance of crispy exterior and tender, custard-like interior, every time.
