I found this recipe on Allrecipes.com and have been using ever since. Over 200 people have reviewed this on their website! What makes it special is the addition of flour to the batter. It enables the coating to stick on the toast and not in the pan. Note: I use Texas Toast bread.

SANTA FE (RAILROAD) FRENCH TOAST



Santa Fe (Railroad) French Toast image

People have been making fun of the railroad for years, but no one jokes about their legendary French Toast. The train might have run late, but when indulging in a breakfast like this, who cared? I realize the cream adds calories, but suggest that you resist the temptation to use milk! It's worth the extra time on the treadmill! NOTE: Besure to use stale bread otherwise you're french toast may be soggy!

1/4 teaspoon salt
vegetable oil (for frying)
confectioners' sugar
warm maple syrup

Tips:

  • Use thick-cut bread for a more substantial French toast.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the French toast in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • To make sure the French toast is cooked through, insert a toothpick in the center. If it comes out clean, the French toast is done.
  • Serve the French toast immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fresh berries, or whipped cream.
  • For a more decadent French toast, use a mixture of milk and cream in the egg batter.
  • If you're short on time, you can make French toast in the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the French toast for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
