This was the worst french toast I've ever had. It was dry, bland, and the caramel sauce was like glue. I wouldn't even feed this to my dog.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The french toast was dry and overcooked, and the caramel sauce was too thick and gooey. I wouldn't recommend this recipe to anyone.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The french toast was good, but the caramel sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would probably make it again, but I would use less sugar in the sauce.
