Food Friday!: French Toast




Food Friday!: French Toast

"Brinner" is one of our favorite dinners at our house. Handsome Hubby loves it, especially my French toast...well, my Mama's French toast! The secret?!...the main ingredient: Challah bread. This traditional Jewish braided egg-bread can be found at your grocery store bakery and makes this breakfast (or "brinner") meal flavorful, rich, and fluffy, not to mention melt-in-your-mouth! It will keep you from every making French toast with any other kind of bread. :)

Ingredients

1 loaf of Challah bread, sliced in approximately 1 inch pieces
6 eggs (you can use 3 whole eggs, and 3 egg whites if preferred)
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup Bisquick (or baking mix)
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp sugar

Directions

In a large bowl, beat ingredients together. Dip each side of the thick slices of bread into the mixture (mixture may need to be stirred occasionally since some of the ingredients may sink to the bottom of the bowl) and place in pan or on griddle over medium heat. Cook both sides, flipping only once, until golden brown. Serving suggestions: with fruit salad and maple syrup! MMmmmm!
