Well it always starts with the usual custard soak - but try jazzing it up a bit with different kinds of bread.....Last weekend I made some with leftover apple cinnamon bread with walnuts........I have also used banana bread -


You could also try flavoring the custard soak - with citrus zest, almond extract, etc.....

My favorite; use Texas toast bread. Mix eggs, milk, cinnamon and vanilla flavoring. Dip the Texas toast in the mixture and cook.


I use the Texas toast bread because it's thicker and stays together better.
