Applesauce, either cold with enough lemon juice to give it a lemony flavour, or warmed with cinnamon added, is nice on French Toast as well. :)

but when you said you let the bread soak for 30 seconds, I thought, whoa! Thats a long time, to me. I just slap it in there, and quickly turn it over, and out. No waiting at all. Otherwise, I knew it would get really soggy. Correction, feel it would get really soggy.

It must be all in the bread then. I just had to make some french toast yesterday for breakfast since all the talk about it. I don't use a recipe, but I did pay more attention to what I was doing, and I probably let the bread soak on each side for maybe more like 15 seconds or so. I use a soft oatmeal type bread though. Not as soft as regular white bread. Mine comes out kind of like a bread pudding like french toast, but it's still in sliced form. Hard to describe. And I cook low and slow so it cooks all the way through and doesn't burn outside. I use butter in the pan. Maybe I'll just have to write down what I do so I can be more efficient at explaining.

I have thought about PB&J sandwiches done up like French Toast all weekend and I don't have any eggs or milk. I just went to the grocery store yesterday, so I guess I'll have to stop again today!! Gotta have one!

Yesterday at a restaurant I had cinnamon roll French Toast. It was an actual cinnamon roll cut in half and then dipped and fried like french Toast. it was very Tasty!!!!

I make french toast with a croissant filled with cream cheese and preserves or chocolate spread. Mmm good.

Wait a minute! I've been away and am just skimming through posts. What's this about cooking PB&J?!!! =)

PB&J is good stuff! Toasted ,french toasted, on white or wheat, and even as a trail name!

All of you sure are making me hungry with this talk of French toast! When I demonstrated for the Pampered Chef I made a recipe for Bananas Foster French Toast. No idea where the recipe is now; but the ladies really liked it at my Sunday morning shows! Terrio--having coffee WITHOUT French Toast :(

Ok so I just downloaded a new app for my itouch.... Bettycrocker cookbook (way cool by the way) and with all this toast talk I had to do a search just to be curios...... OH YUM I think I could make it every day and have a diff kind!
