"This Stuff is killer good, and if you follow the whole recipe you'll probably have leftovers. Not to worry, freezes well. This is not every day eating, but enjoy it when you can."

This is not my usual milk/eggs french toast! It is so much better! The batter makes a nice crispy coating on the bread and lends a nice texture and flavor. I used stale regular bread that was going to waste. I halved the recipe and still had batter after 10 slices.

I am actually rating this recipe on behalf of my 11 yr old daughter who made this for breakfast today. And we all agree that is was great french toast. She may have to set up her own cookbook because mom is always sending her recipes and glad to see her trying them.

No need for syrup, honey, fruit or any other adornments on this French Toast! It is wonderful just the way it is. I halved the recipe for my family. (only 3 of us). The only other change I made was to use confectioner's sugar and cinnamon for the topping. Very nice recipe, Ridgley. Thanks for sharing!

Delicious,Excellent! This recipe is just what I have been looking for. I halved the recipe, used splenda instead of sugar. Also used Geema's whole wheat apple cinnamon bread, recipe #55359. Thank you, this will be my french toast recipe from now on.

This is the best! I will be making this again, but will half the batter because I had more than I needed for a loaf of bread.

THE. BEST. FRENCH. TOAST. EVER. Really, this just blows all other french toast recipes out of the water (and yes, I've tried a few!). Absolutely luscious. The only thing I did different was to fry in butter instead of oil (to cut calories, LOL!) We ate this for dinner, and I'm glad we didn't have it for breakfast--we ate so much, I think we'd have been done for the whole day. Thanks so much for posting this WONDERFUL recipe!
