Basic French Toast

Stale bread works best for French toast because it absorbs the egg mixture better without falling apart. Brioche, French baguette, or even whole wheat bread are great options.

Absolutely! Dairy-free milk substitutes like almond milk, soy milk, or oat milk work just as well in this French toast recipe. The flavor might be slightly different, but it will be delicious!

For extra flavor, you can add vanilla extract, nutmeg, or a pinch of salt to the egg mixture. These additions will give your French toast a richer and more complex taste.

Keep it simple with butter and honey or maple syrup, add some sliced banana or fresh berries, or go decadent with crispy bacon and maple butter.
