French Toast, the Recipe to Keep.
French toast, the recipe to keep
French toast are my favorite weekend breakfast. Back at home, my mom was making them forever now. We manly were making them for breakfast but sometimes in tea time too. In France they make french toast with baguettes especially when the baguette becomes soft and lose it crunchiness. So it’s a kind of recycling of the bread, which is a good idea! So keep in mind that when your bread start to stay for a long time in your fridge, make with it a French toast. Because here what it is, you deep the bread in milk and eggs so you try to soften this bread, why using a fresh bread though?! As I mentioned before, i had French toast with all kind of breads and mixtures, but this recipe i prefer the most why? Simply, because in this recipe we use a batter not only a milk and eggs mixture. In the batter i use more eggs then other recipes, milk and flour, also, i use a very small amount of butter for cooking. As a result you get a toast with a very good consistency, flavory and not oily at all.
