PERFECT FRENCH TOAST
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Whisk 4 eggs, 1 1/2 cups half-and-half or milk, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon sugar and a pinch of salt in a shallow bowl. Heat 1/2 tablespoon butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, dip 6 thick slices white bread, challah or brioche in the egg mixture and cook in the skillet until golden, 2 to 3 minutes per side, adding more butter as needed. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until puffed, 8 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, melt 4 tablespoons butter in the same skillet until browned, about 5 minutes. Drizzle the French toast with the browned butter and maple syrup.
MARTHA'S PERFECT FRENCH TOAST
From Martha Stewart. That woman sure knows how to make a delicious french toast! I have changed her recipe to omit some unneeded calories and fat. It is the best french toast our family has ever had, and our guests all agreed! I make this on a Sunday morning if we still have extra challah left over.

- Put the eggs, milk, cream, vanilla, salt and cinnamon (if you're using it) in a mixing bowl. Beat together until uniform and frothy.
- Set a large, non-stick frying pan on the stove over medium-high heat. Toss the butter in to get it melting.
- While the butter is melting, give your bread slices a dunk in the egg batter. Flip them over a few times, so they're coated well on both sides. Let each slice drip a little excess egg mixture off, then put it quickly into your hot pan.
- Cook for a few minutes on the first side, until your French toast is golden brown underneath. Gently flip it over with a large spatula.

Author Food Network Kitchen
- Choose Your Bread and Slice it Thickly. For particularly fluffy, custardy French toast, select bread like brioche or challah. For something with a little more structure, go for a country-style bread.
- Make the Batter. Our recipe for The Best French Toast includes a fantastic ingredient ratio: 10 large eggs, 2 cups of half-and-half and 1/4 cup of light brown sugar to soak one whole loaf of bread.
- Soak the Toast In the Batter. Add several slices of bread to the egg mixture and soak them until they just absorb the mixture and feel heavy but don’t fall apart — 30 seconds to one minute per side should do it.
- Cook the French Toast in Batches. While you soak the bread, melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Cook two of the soaked bread slices until they’re deep golden brown, the custard has set and the insides are cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes a side.
- Get Creative With Your Toppings. Although maple syrup, butter and powdered sugar are classic ways to finish off your French toast (and there’s nothing wrong with going classic), you can also top your creation with sliced fresh fruit.

- Start with the Best French Toast Bread. A dense-crumbed white pullman bread is classic for French toast—but for an extra dose of richness, an eggy challah or brioche works wonderfully, too.
- Cut the Right Size Slice. Thinly sliced French toast loses something of its luxurious bite. So go thick, no thinner than half-an-inch. More bread per slice means a bite with more personality.
- Nail the Egg-to-Milk Ratio. Eggs and milk are the essential components of the custard base that gives French toast its tender richness—but get their ratio off and you'll wind up with undercooked slices that have an unpleasantly savory "scrambled eggs" flavor.
- Season Your French Toast Batter. Milk and eggs are the only essentials required for the custard base—but it's how you season the mixture that will give your French toast a distinctive flavor.
- Use a Non-Stick Pan. French toast, we know, arises from bread dipped in an egg mixture. Given how much egg bread absorbs, you probably want to cook in a non-stick pan.
- Upgrade Your Maple Syrup. When topping French toast just before eating, skip the corn syrup pretenders. Many aren't maple, but rather "breakfast" or "pancake" syrups.
- Explore Fancy Toppings. Consider topping slices with a dollop of cool ricotta and a spoonful of your favorite jam, say cherry or apricot. Compound butters that embrace sweet ingredients, such as honey butter, can also add something different and welcome.
- Don't Skip the Butter! There are times to only reach for a cooking oil like grapeseed, but this isn't one of them. Butter gives French toast a deep richness and comforting quality, which are what we crave on mornings we sizzle this breakfast staple.

- Slice a small sliver off each end of the bread then cut the loaf in half. Cut each half in half, then each piece in half to yield eight slices, about one inch thick.
- Place a rack over a sheet tray and lay out the slices and let sit overnight uncovered to dry out the bread.
- In a medium bowl, vigorously beat eggs then whisk in sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and milk. Cover and place in the refrigerator overnight.
- When ready to serve, whisk once more then pour the egg mixture into a casserole dish. We used a 9X13 so we could dip four at a time.
12 FOOD HACKS FOR PERFECT FRENCH TOAST, EVERY TIME « …
From food-hacks.wonderhowto.com
Author Karen AhnPublished 2014-09-19Estimated Reading Time 7 mins
- Use High-Quality Bread with a Dense Crumb. Sure, just about any bread that's dipped in an egg-based custard (aka soaking liquid) and fried in butter is going to taste good, but if you want your French toast to taste great, you want really, really good bread.
- Make Sure the Bread Is Dry, Dry, Dry. Making French toast with fresh, soft bread usually means you end up with soggy slices. That bread needs to have some moisture removed to really cook up well.
- Bring Ingredients to Room Temperature. Don't just bung cold milk and eggs into a bowl and start whisking away. Fine Cooking recommends that those key ingredients be brought to room temperature so another key ingredient in the custard, melted butter, doesn't become solid and grainy.
- Use Only Egg Yolks, Not Whites, in the Soaking Liquid. Meanwhile, the folks at Cook's Illustrated go one step further and say that you should only use egg yolks for the soaking liquid.
- Strain the Custard! Slate recommends straining the soaking liquid before you put your bread in it, and I heartily agree. No matter how well you whisk, sometimes lumps of egg white remain in the custard.
- Opt for Full-Fat Dairy in the Custard. Reduced fat milk will do in a pinch, but if you have the time to plan ahead, get full-fat milk and use melted butter in the custard.
- Don't Be Afraid to Saturate the Bread. Having French toast fall apart in the skillet is a real bummer, but that doesn't mean you have to only dip the surface of your bread in the custard.
- Secret Ingredient: Fancy Booze. Everyone has their own proprietary blend of spices and sweetness they add to the custard. Usually it's some form of vanilla, sugar, cinnamon, etc.
- Use Powdered Sugar, Not Granulated. If your favorite French toast recipe calls for adding sugar to the custard, do everyone a solid and use powdered, not granulated.
- Balance Out Sweetness. Bon Appétit advises that you minimize the amount of sugar in the custard or skip it altogether if you're going to be serving your French toast alongside a lot of sweet toppings.
