Bread Recipe For French Toast

Since it makes great French toast, it’s the bread that’s most often used in diners to make this dish. Any diner I visited in New York City uses it exclusively to make this popular breakfast item. There’s a reason for that too.

Because it’s soft and has a slightly sweet taste, it absorbs the egg custard easily. Also, since it’s an egg-based bread, it will brown gloriously when it’s grilled.

This bread can be used just like any other loaf of bread. It make great regular toast, bread crumbs and sandwiches. If you make Monte Cristo sandwiches, this bread is the perfect choice. I’ve always considered that sandwich a cross between French toast and a ham sandwich. There’s a sweet yet savory factor there and this bread is perfect for that.

Healthy French Toast

If you’re an artist with yeast breads then braiding this bread will come easy and will be perfect. My mother was such an artist. Unfortunately, I didn’t inherit that skill. I braid, but not very well.

But does that really matter? Think about it. It doesn’t. What you’re going for here is the bread itself and not a work of art. Merely making it as a regular loaf works just as well. So if you’re all thumbs at braiding or shaping, just divide the bread into two pieces and plop each piece in a loaf pan. It works.

Thick slices of bread, soaked in a mixture of beaten eggs with milk and cinnamon, toasted in a frying pan, and served with butter and maple syrup. This has to be one of our favorite, and most indulgent, breakfast dishes.

How To Make French Toast

French toast comes out best if you work with thick slices of French or Italian loaf bread that are several days old. That way they've had a chance to firm up, which will make the slices hold up better when you dip them in the egg milk mixture and fry them.
