How Do You Make French Toast?

How Do You Make French Toast?

French toast is a classic brunch dish. But what makes it special? Is it the addition of vanilla bean paste, cinnamon sticks, or maybe even maple syrup?

Or is it because it takes hours of baking to turn stale bread into something delicious?

Whatever the case, there is no denying that French toast is a favorite among many Americans. 

And while most people think of French toast recipes as being fairly straightforward, they often require long periods of preparation and/or cooking.

So today, we’re sharing our secret to making the perfect French toast every single time.

It’s all about using the right kind of bread. While white bread works well for savory dishes, it can be too bland for sweet ones. Instead, use hearty sourdough bread.

Not only will it taste better than regular bread, but it also has more flavor. Plus, it won’t get soggy when soaked up.

Next, make sure to soak the bread overnight. This allows the bread to absorb moisture from the air, which helps keep it soft and fluffy. If you don’t have the time to wait, try soaking the bread in cold water instead.

Once the bread is ready, it’s time to dip it in the batter. There are two ways to do this. One way is to simply pour the batter over the top of the bread.

The other method is to add the batter to a shallow container and then dip the bread into it. Whichever method you choose, make sure to flip the bread halfway through so both sides are coated.

Once the bread is completely covered in batter, it’s time to cook it. Most recipes suggest placing the bread in a pan and pouring hot oil over it.

However, if you prefer not to use oil, you can just bake the bread in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for roughly 10 minutes.

When it comes to toppings, we recommend adding them after the bread has been cooked. They’ll melt in during the process, and you won’t end up with any burnt pieces.

What Else Can You Put On French Toast?

The classic breakfast staple is one of those foods that always seems to taste better the next day. This recipe uses eggy bread slices and is topped with sweet chocolate that makes every bite truly special.

French toast is one of those breakfast dishes that everyone loves. But what makes it special? What are the best toppings for this dish? 

And how do you make it even better? Why not try adding fruit to your banana chocolate French toast such as strawberries to really complement the dish? 

Final Thoughts

This recipe is so easy to make and can be made ahead of time if needed.

The only thing you need to remember when making this dish is to keep the bread moist by dipping it in the egg mixture before placing it in the pan. If you don’t, then the bread will dry out and become soggy.

So now that you know how to make this dish, why not share it with your friends and family?

They’ll thank you later!
