HOW TO MAKE THIS FRENCH TOAST RECIPE, STEP BY STEP:

Mix the sugar and the cinnamon in a medium bowl. (note 1)
Add the flour, salt and nutmeg and stir until incorporated.
Whisk together eggs, milk and heavy cream until combined.
Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and whisk until no lumps are left, you might want to use a hand mixer or an immersion blender if necessary.
Soak your each slice on both sides in the egg mixture. Don´t go too fast or the bread won’t be properly soaked through.
Cook bread on each side until golden brown. (note 2)

WHAT KIND OF BREAD DO I USE FOR FRENCH TOAST?

Honestly you can use any bread that you like, the thicker or sturdier the better. Some of our favorites include:

Texas Toast
Challah
Brioche
Cinnamon Raisin
French Bread

You can absolutely buy loaves of bread and slice them thick, we do that a lot of the time when we use Brioche or Challah when we don’t find them already pre-sliced.

So there are many options on bread types for this recipe, it all depends on what you can find at your grocer and what you personally like,!

HOW TO STORE:

If you are not going to eat all of your French Toast in one sitting you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for one day, after that it get to mushy.

You can reheat either back in the pan to warm it up, in the toaster for a quick toast or in the oven at a low setting.

You can also freeze leftovers, place your cooked slices on a baking tray and freeze in the freezer for about an hour then store in an airtight freezer bag, this should last up too 3 months.

Let defrost in the refrigerator then heat up like I said above.

HOW CAN I TOP MY FRENCH TOAST RECIPE?

There are so many different ways you can top French Toast! We go the normal route with butter, syrup and fruit usually.

Some other options include, powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, peanut butter, etc.

There is so many different ways, so just go with what you love and run with it, remember this is a base recipe, you can make it your own with the toppings!

If you are a lover of breakfast like we are in our house then you will absolutely love this recipe. It is simple and it took me many different times to tweak it to how I really liked it.
