How many breads are you getting out of this? Even with regular soaking i usually get two slices out of an egg. Are you feeding multiple folks on two eggs?

Add a little milk to the eggs to stretch it.
no cinnamon? D: i've never had french toast that didn't have a bit of cinnamon, tbh
I'll have to try the splash of vanilla extract next time. That'll go nicely with the cinnamon!
Can highly recommend the vanilla, although the good stuff isn't terribly frugal. When feeling lavish, I can also recommend basting both sides of the bread in egg mix, and buttering the pan instead. Then re-butter the pan before flipping (remove, wipe, butter, replace on flipside).
Serve with sprinkle of sugar, and a generous twist of juice from a garden lemon. drools
I definitely get the imitation stuff. No idea if that's complete poison compared to the real thing. That sounds amazing btw. Gonna make my wife some good french toast lol
Do it. Smother that thing in vanilla ice cream for extra dietary regret.
Every recommendation shaves a year off my life lmao
Some things are just worth dying for 😁
Like potatos! Nice creamy mashed russet potatoes with some salty brown gravy.
... Aaaand now I'm hungry. Could someone pass the potatoes?
I'm afraid I don't know anyone that can help you with that.
I've switched to using a recipe that involves separating the eggs and only using the yolks plus milk or cream and sugar. Because of the dairy it's less frugal but the taste and texture is better.
