A friend takes whatever bread she has leftover, cinnamon, banana nut, and dips that into the egg and fries it. I tried it with store bought cinnamon bread, it was good.


I just use stale sliced white bread, and it is good. Love it with some mild sausage links and an egg.


The secret to really good french toast is the vanilla, I do not know what it does to the bread and eggs, exactly, maybe it brings out the sweetness. Use as good of vanilla as yo can afford to buy. I might try a tiny bit of salt next time.


I will refer you for recipes to the Neelys from Food Network, who stuff french bread slices with cream cheese and add bananas that have been sauteed in brown sugar and butter. The remaining is poured over the top. Rum is also added, but they mentioned that rum flavoring could be used. Now that one sounds good.
The other posters are right, and you can mix a beaten eggwhite into the batter. It will turn out lighter and fluffier. Make sure you're using a good bread, too. They might have used egg bread in Texas.
First of all use the extra thick bread. Crack the eggs in a bowl add a little Cinnamon and a bit of milk. Put about one table of spoon of butter and a table spoon of margarine in a skillet melt slowly. Dip bread in eggs. and fry in skillet mmmmm mmmm good that's what french toast is mmmmm mmmm good.

I'm craving french toast...What is a simple recipe for it?

I need exact measurements not just ';a little'; or ';a few'; or ';a dash';.


And just with eggs, milk, cinnamon, and bread.


And it's just for me.I'm craving french toast...What is a simple recipe for it?
This is the simplest for me:





Several slices of day old French bread, thickly sliced


2 eggs, beaten


1 Tablespoon milk


1 Tablespoon Kahlua





Mix eggs, milk and Kahlua together. Dip in bread slices. Fry on both sides. Yum!I'm craving french toast...What is a simple recipe for it?
FRENCH TOAST





3 eggs, beaten


1/4 cup milk


1/2 teaspoon vanilla, optional


1/2 teaspoon cinnamon


10 slices bread





In a large bowl, mix beaten eggs with the milk, vanilla and cinnamon. Dip a slice of bread into mixture then place on a heated griddle that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side on medium / medium-high heat or until desired doneness.
Well, I use an electric skillet, and I dunk the bread in a mixture of a couple of eggs, a teaspoon of vanilla, and enough milk to make the stirred mixture of the ingredients flow easily. Dunk the bread on both sides, put it in the skillet, cook each side til it's just a bit crispy. That's as ';exact'; as I can tell you.
2 eggs + 1 cup milk; whisk together. Soak bread on both sides, top w/ powdered sugar and cinnamon.
Scramble two eggs, beat in 2 TB milk, 1 tsp vanilla, %26amp; 1/4 tsp cinnamon. Soak bread 1 piece at a time both sides %26amp; put in hot fry pan, cook until golden on each side. You'll probably have enough egg mixture for 3 or 4 pieces of bread. If you get down to the last bread %26amp; egg mixture is not enough, put just a little more milk so bread gets completely coated.
Ingredients ~





* 2 eggs


* 1/2 cup milk


* 1/2 tsp. vanilla


* 1/8 tsp. cinnamon


* 3 tsp. sugar (add more or less if you please)


* 6 slices bread (pick your favorite kind)


* 1 tbsp. butter (for the pan)








Directions ~





1. Beat eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and sugar in bowl.


2. Dip bread into mixture (do not let the bread soak for too long) and coat both sides.


3. Melt butter in pan.


4. Put the bread in the pan and let cook on each side for 2 to 3 minutes.


5. Add butter if needed.


6. Serve the toast warm.


7. Add maple syrup strawberry's or whatever else you like


8. Then enjoy! =)
pre-heat a pan with some butter then do what you do when you make scrabbled eggs but instead of putting the eggs in the pan dip your toast in them for a few minutes on both sides and fry them in a pan and flip them over till they either get slightly roasted while letting them cook and when you want to take them off put them in a plate and put whatever topping you like on top like butter and syrup, just syrup, just butter... whatever ^^
2 eggs,which you should beat first and then mix with milk. Then get your pan ready with butter in it,it'll make it not burnt lol,or use a toaster over. After that,dip your wheat bread slices 1 at a time if your mix and cool in either one over or toaster until it's a golden color,and putting about a teaspoon of cinnamon on the top is awesome too (pick mine!)
To make regular french toast, you take:


2 eggs


1/4 cup milk


1 TB sugar


1/4 tsp vanilla


1/8 tsp cinnamon





Beat it all up with fork or whisk. In Louisiana they call this ';Lost Bread';





Heat a fry pan to medium hot, with vegetable oil or canola oil.





Take slices of regular bread, and start dipping them in the egg.


Dip and leave briefly, then put into the fry pan and cook till lightly or medium browned. Flip and brown on other side.

    Cocktail Blood Orange Bellini


    Hot Non-Alcoholic Coffee


    DIRECTIONS





    1. Peel peaches, remove pits, and slice into a heavy saucepan, catching all the juices. Stir in sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon, and cook over medium heat until bubbly. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the sauce reaches a syrupy consistency, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.


    2. Meanwhile, cut off and discard the ends of the bolillo rolls. Slice the rolls into 1 1/4-inch-thick slices. Lay each slice of bread on a board, and with a sharp knife held parallel to the board, cut a pocket into each slice, leaving three sides intact. Set aside.


    3. Stir together the mascarpone, confectioners' sugar, and lemon zest until smooth. Scoop this mixture into a small plastic bag. Cut off one corner of the bag, and pipe as much filling into the pocket in each slice of bread as will fit without overflowing.


    4. Whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla in a shallow bowl. Melt butter with oil over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet. Dip each stuffed piece of bread into the batter, add to the skillet, and cook until browned on both sides. Serve hot with the warm peach sauce.

    I make the Paula Deen casserole that Chainz gave you the recipe for.


    I offer it along with a champagne breakfast for my cabin guests and I'm here to tell you, it's YUMMY!!!


    I do pour a little bit of the liquid off before baking or sometimes it seems just a little ';too wet'; for my taste.


    The praline topping will look too thick but it will be fine.


    Good Luck.
