Basic French Toast Question

Sourdough.

If you like very rich n buttery, use brioche.
For a fluffier texture, try challah.
Old school is a very stale lean bread (like baguette or a country French loaf). But this kind will absorb more costing and be egg ire/more dense/custardy.

We like using stale French bread cut diagonally for bigger slices.

I've used everything from croissants to banana nut bread to hot dog buns for French toast. I don't know which was the best but they all were good.

I remember a lady at my church claiming to use eggnog as her base. I've never tried it but it seems logical.

My favorite is when you tear a hole in the middle and crack an egg into it.



Better yet, make a grilled cheese sandwich out of it.

I'm so trying that grilled cheese / eggs in a basket that looks awesome! As for French toast the honey wheat bread we eat for everything else does fine with eggs and vanilla extract,salt and a little cinnamon sugar and powdered sugar on top.
