Mmmmmm – though in the UK we eat our French Toast kinda savoury rather than sweet and have it with salt and tomato sauce/ketchup and bacon. I like to add chilli flaskes to the egg and milk to make it spicy. Gosh it is good but wish it was not so bad for you!

Yum! French Toast is definitely oru breakfast on weekends. I make it in a similar way except that we use light syrup. We eat it with turkey bacon,over-easy eggs and freshly squeeze orange juice.

I make my French toast the in almost a similar way, but with a sweet mixture instead, and so I use condensed milk..

Here’s the variation at our home: After sprinkling the sugar, I grate queso de bola on top, throw the thing under the broiler or toaster over for a few seconds, (maybe a minute?) to melt, or brown the cheese. Yum! When I can’t find brioche, I use challah bread.

There are some Chinese coffee shops here that serve super thick french toast – equivalent to about 4 slices thick. The edges are trimmed off so it is very nice and spongy in the middle and a bit crusty on the side.yummy with fresh butter and honey and downed with warm teh tarik. nice way to start my day

Your french toast looks even better on the yellow plate. I agree with you: I’m not into soggy french toast as others seem to like it. My mom seems to like it soggy too, just like Mrs. MM. :)

Growing up my sister was our french toast maven, and she pretty much stuck to a recipe like yours. Then I had a roommate in China, a Chinese Canadian, who added green onions to the batter!!!! It sort of caused a big debate between us what was French Toast. I’ll stick to the one without the onions in it. I’ll also add a powder of cocoa to the finished dish so I can have my chocolate with the bread :)
