The Best & Easiest French Toast Recipe

The Best & Easiest French Toast Recipe

What is your go-to splurge breakfast?  Waffles, pancakes, or French toast? I will admit that I love all 3 but I have been on a French Toast kick for a while now! It is not an easy task to get the perfect French Toast, no one likes a soggy breakfast! I have finally found the perfect combination and I am sharing it with you today, the best & easiest French Toast recipe!  

I love cinnamon, and if you put that in almost anything, it will taste even better! After all, that is one of my “secret” ingredients in my Banana Bread! If you haven’t made that yet you can find that recipe here. But my recipe for French Toast combines ease, cinnamon, and no more soggy bread that you will love!

The Ingredients

There are all kinds of recommendations out there for what type of bread to use for your French Toast. I have tried a lot of them. This is where I am a little different from the rest! Most will recommend you use brioche, baguettes, or ciabatta. I use Pepperidge Farm thick slice Brown Sugar Cinnamon bread. Some may say this is “cheating”, but it has been the best & easiest French Toast I have made yet! I have tried it several ways and I do not get soggy toast using this bread. And the amount of cinnamon is perfect! Lol!

I like to use my electric griddle instead of a skillet. I can cook at least 6 slices of French Toast at once and it’s a consistent heat. That is up to you, it’s a personal preference!

Ingredients

  • Pepperidge Farm Thick Sliced Brown Sugar Cinnamon Bread
  • 4 Eggs
  • 3/4 cup Milk
  • 2 tsp. Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tbsp. Butter

Instructions

  • In a medium-sized bowl whisk together eggs, milk, and vanilla extract.
  • Turn on your griddle to medium heat (325-350) and melt butter.  
  • Dip your bread into the egg mixture. I like to use tongs. I do not let them sit in there. I flip each one 4-5 times and place it on the griddle.
  • Cook on each side until golden brown. It usually takes 2-3minutes on each side.
  • I like to use lite syrup; I don’t notice a difference in the taste, and you save a few calories! Lol.

Reheating Tips

Chances are you will not have leftovers but if you do you have a few options!

If you are tight on time, I would recommend throwing it in the microwave with a damp paper towel, at 15-second intervals until heated through. Unfortunately, this will not give you crispy French Toast, but it will still be good. Another quick possibility is to put it in the toaster, for 1-2 minutes. It will give you a little more crispiness than the microwave.

Now if you have a few extra minutes in your morning the ideal way to reheat is in your air fryer! That’s right! Heat your air fryer to 350 and place it in there for 3-4 minutes. Don’t layer them on top of each other though. This will give you a nice crispy reheat! You can also reheat it in your oven if you don’t have an air fryer. The same thing, preheat to 350 and cover with foil. You will need to cook it for about 5-10 minutes and uncover it for the last 2 minutes. This takes a little longer, but your results should be pretty good!  

Your final option is always to heat your skillet with a little bit of butter and fry it again for a few minutes. It will be as good as new!


So, are you a French Toast kind of person? If you are still looking for the perfect recipe this one is worth a try!

It's difficult sometimes when someone hurts us. We sometimes wonder why God "isn't doing anything" about the bad things in the world, or the bad people in our lives. 
But it isn't up to us. We only need to worry about ourselves. He sees it all, the good and the bad. And sometimes we only see a small part of what is really going on in someone's life. It is easy to make a judgment. It is difficult to 👇
Give it to God 🤍

There are a lot of benefits to having a dog, besides unconditional love. 🤍 Studies have shown that just petting a dog can:
• Lower your blood pressure
• Lower heart rate
• Slows breathing
• Relaxes muscle tension
I think Theo has been doing a good job of all of the above! I won't even get into what he does when I have a migraine. 🤯 Dogs are amazing. 🤍
Do you have a dog? Do you agree with what these studies have shown?

It took me a while to find some barstools that I liked. I didn’t want your classic ones. I wanted a coastal feel to them. I also didn’t want to spend an arm & a leg for them! Can you believe how expensive bar stools have gotten?! 🫣
I am a bargain shopper and I finally found these at @target of all places! I have them linked over on my 𝐋𝐓𝐊 𝐩𝐚𝐠𝐞 if you want to check them out. 👇

Happy Easter friends! Jesus' story didn't end on the cross. It only just began. 
Sometimes on our hardest days or toughest times in life we look back and realize it was the beginning of something good. 🤍

If you have read any of my blog posts over on 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐠 then you know that drinking your water is important for both healthy skin and hair. 
Our body is made up of about 50-70% water. So, staying hydrated is important! Experts recommend that you drink half your body weight in ounces. 
I was gifted this great water bottle to help me remember to drink my water from @venturepal_usa. It has such cute reminders on it to help keep you motivated throughout the day! They also come in different sizes and colors. 
How much water do you drink every day? I need to drink more so hopefully this will help! 🤍

The world around us can get stressful. We have become a society of being "honest" to the extent that it doesn't matter if it's true but it's that person's opinion. Opinions have become facts. I don't know about you, but a lot of this causes me anxiety. 
Do you struggle with anxiety? If not, you are lucky. But if you do all is not lost. The Bible talks about anxiety and worry. God doesn’t want us to be anxious, He wants us to come to Him for help. Remember, you are never alone! 
Head over to 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐠 to read our post, I'm Only Talking To Jesus Today! When I am worried and anxious, I often find myself going into this mode. 
We are sharing a few tools to help get you through those times. The link is in our profile! 🔗

This has been a rough week for a lot of us on many levels. What makes evil happy? Tearing each other apart, dividing, and breaking down. How do we overcome evil? With good. 
Be good. Be kind. Don't participate in the unkindness and negativity. And above all else, pray. 🤍
