French Toast, Breakfast

"I find it completely odd, if you go to any local restaurant in Erie PA, their version of 'french toast' is simply to a very light coating of egg only bread and fry it. It drives me up the wall. I rather have scrabbled eggs on toast, please." - MetricCook

    This is my favorite french toast recipe ....minus nutmeg with a little extra brown sugar. Made both regular-sliced white bread and raisin bread. Enjoyed by everyone.

    Brown sugar and nutmeg are subtle but nice additions to a classic french toast recipe. Top with a small amount of powdered sugar.

    Yum!!! We use this one every Sunday. No nutmeg needed. Brown sugar all the way. Sea salt. Lactose free milk seems to work best. Vanilla bean makes it.

    I made this for my three sons and we went through 2 loaves of bread. I used cinnamon raisin bread and it was excellent.
