"Pretty delicious! I'm 14, and I got in the kitchen and made this for my moms breakfast in bed. She and I absolutely loved it for many reasons. For one, it's simple enough for a young person like me to cook. For two, fast! Took me about 15 minutes. And lastly, tasted amazing!"

"This was great, easy to make and tasted yummy! I was a little skeptical about the pancake mix in the batter, but it really made a nice coating on the toast!"
-Troop Angel
"Great recipe. It's flexible enough to be made vegan too! I used Ener-g Egg Replacer, almond milk, and margarine and topped it with some maple syrup. Comfort food at it's finest."

-AZPARZYCH
"Great treat for breakfast! I used homemade whole wheat bread. The kids went ga-ga over this one!"
-SweetsLady
"I loved the 'candy crunch' from the brown sugar, and the flavor was awesome. This is the perfect recipe for days when you want French toast but are out of syrup."
-**Tinkerbell**
"It was really good - something I wouldn't normally think to make. My whole family wanted to have some more."
-Lover of baking
"I don't care for sweets in the morning, so this caught my eye right away. It was delicious, but I added a bit more cheese to make it crisper. I used some rustic bread instead of the sour dough--looked exactly like the bread in the video, but less tang."
-janmaus
"My family LOVED this recipe. I added peanut butter as well as butter and syrup to mine. It was delicious and really super easy to make. What a genius idea for using up bananas!"

-Baby Kato
"I am always looking for something to do with my leftover challah. My kids loved this. I made this in my sandwich maker and it was really easy to cleanup and came out great. I must admit that I did cut back a little on the sugar in the recipe, but my kids made up for it with the powdered sugar and maple syrup!"
-Caryn Gale
"Woah, BABY!!! This is the best French toast I've ever had! I had my doubts when it came out of the oven, as it was pale. But once you flip it over and see the crunchy goodness - oh my!"
-Jostlori
"Loved this recipe. Used exact ingredient amounts but swapped out vanilla for vanilla bean extract and fried them in a bit of burnt butter! YUMMO! VERY fluffy (the more you mix with mixer, the fluffier they will be)"
-Cindy P.

-Jen B
"I now have a new method to use to make French Toast. Loved the crispy outside and the fully cooked insides! My DS had me make some with the cinnamon and some without (not his favorite spice - gasp!) and both worked well. Absolutely perfect recipe! So glad I found it."
-HokiesMom
"Great recipe! I used 1 c. of maple syrup instead of brown sugar and it was delicious. We had it for Christmas breakfast!"
-Monica in PA
"I made these for breakfast over the weekend. We all loved them, especially the kids. The recipe worked perfectly as written. The sandwiches were delicately crisp on the outside and had the yummy pbj filling on the inside. It is good when you want to have something different for breakfast because we get tired of the same old thing."
-PixieDust
"Fabulous recipe in taste & soo easy to prepare. The smell was divine while baking, when I removed it from the oven the bread was so puffy, it was beautiful. We enjoyed this dish & it will be repeated in our home."
-Janni402
"My family loved this recipe. It was soooo good. I used normal wheat bread because that's all we had, but I felt the texture would have been better with challah. Since my family loves cinnamon, I added a little on top. My mom agreed that it was even better with the cinnamon."
