Tips:

  • To make sure the French toast is cooked evenly, use a griddle or frying pan that is large enough to fit all of the slices in a single layer.
  • If you don't have a griddle or frying pan, you can also cook the French toast in a regular pan over medium heat. Just be sure to flip the slices frequently so that they cook evenly.
  • To prevent the French toast from sticking to the pan, use a little bit of butter or cooking spray.
  • For a more decadent French toast, use a mixture of milk and cream instead of just milk.
  • If you like your French toast crispy, cook it for a few minutes longer on each side.
  • For a fun twist, try using different types of bread for your French toast, such as croissants, waffles, or even pancakes.
