Recipe for French Toast

Amanda65

DD2 is 15 tomoroow (how did that happen so quickly ) and as they always choose their birthday breakfast has decided she would like French Toast.

Does anyone have a lovely light recipe as when I've made it in the past it always seems a bit 'heavy'. We're laso trying to eat a bit more healthily so if there is something with a bit of fruit or something with it that would be great:D

I whisk the eggs with a mixer until frothy and the toast comes out lovely

I add a little cinnamon to the eggs too.

It seems to me its heavier if the pan isn't hot enough when the bread goes in...and yes, whisk the eggs well!

Although its too late now, for ultra light french toast an ultralight texture bread helps too.

Thanks for the tip. What ratio egg: milk : sugar do you use?

4 eggs, 240ml milk and 1 Tbsp sugar

Thanks peeps :beer:

I used this recipe and whisked my eggs, added a little cinnamon and cooked it in my griddle and served drizzeld in maple syrup. Result - one very happy 15 yo DD this morning (not to mention DS and OH!):D
