Panduan Langkah demi Langkah
Make the Custard
Whisk together 2 eggs, ½ cup milk, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tbsp sugar, and ½ tsp cinnamon in a shallow dish. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Choose the Right Bread
Use thick-sliced bread (¾ to 1 inch) — brioche, challah, or Texas toast work best. Day-old bread is ideal as it absorbs custard without falling apart.
Dip and Soak
Dip each bread slice into the custard, letting it soak 15-30 seconds per side. The bread should be saturated but not falling apart.
Cook to Perfection
Melt 1 tbsp butter in a pan over medium heat. Cook each slice 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Add more butter between batches.
Pertanyaan yang Sering Diajukan
Mengapa my French toast soggy in the middle?
Either the bread is too thin, you soaked it too long, or the heat was too high (cooking the outside before the inside). Use thick bread, soak briefly, and cook on medium heat.
Bisakah saya make French toast ahead of time?
Yes! Cook and cool completely, then freeze on a baking sheet. Store in freezer bags for up to 2 months. Reheat in a 350°F oven or toaster for best results.
What's the best bread for French toast?
Brioche, challah, and Texas toast are ideal due to their thickness and egg-rich composition. Avoid thin sandwich bread — it gets too soggy. Day-old bread absorbs better than fresh.
Bisakah saya make French toast without eggs?
Yes! Use mashed banana (¼ cup per egg), flax eggs (1 tbsp ground flax + 3 tbsp water), or commercial egg replacers. Add extra cinnamon and vanilla to boost flavor.
What toppings go with French toast?
Classic: maple syrup and butter. Fruity: fresh berries, sliced bananas, or fruit compote. Indulgent: whipped cream, Nutella, or powdered sugar. Savory: bacon or ham on the side.
