  • FOR BRUNCH TODAY......


    FRENCH TOAST


    6 Eggs
    1-1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
    3/4 cup milk
    6 tablespoons maple syrup
    3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    One loaf of Texas Toast Bread
    butter


    In a shallow dish, beat together the eggs, sugar, milk, maple syrup, and cinnamon with a fork until well bleneded.  DIp each piece of bread into the egg mizture coating completely. 


    In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.  Cook the bread a few at a time for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until golden brown.    I personally have an electric griddle that I use to make these.  It holds 8 pieces at a time, so this goes pretty fast.  I do not put any syrup on these when I eat them as I think they are pretty sweet already.  Hubby and kids still drown it in syrup.  They love these!!


    This recipe makes a triple batch of french toast as we freeze individual ones in a sandwhich bag for breakfast throughout the week.  Simple warm in the microwave and you have a very quick breakfast.   What a time saver and Tommy actually eats then very well. 


    Now for supper tonight.....
