Notes

Here are a few notes I’ve picked up from making this French toast recipe multiple times (it’s become a breakfast staple in our house!). It’s an easy recipe, but a few simple tips will help make sure your French toast turns out perfect every time.
  • Use a wide, shallow bowl so dipping is easy and even. I use a “pasta” bowl for this step.
  • Don’t soak the bread too long - a quick dip on both sides is enough! That’s why I recommend having the batter, bread, and pan all ready to go before you dip.
  • Cook your toast on medium heat, not high. High heat browns the outside too fast while the inside stays wet.
  • If your batter thickens as it sits, add a splash more milk and whisk again until smooth and runny before dipping the bread.
