In my opinion, Challah bread is the superior choice when it comes to French Toast. Challah bread is already buttery giving it great flavor and it’s fairly dense so it holds up to being soaked in the egg mixture.
Holiday and Special Occasion Breakfast
In my family I’m the chief French Toast maker for holidays like Easter brunch and Christmas morning. It’s kind of become a tradition that I’m happy to oblige. French Toast is one of my very favorite breakfast foods and it always feel like a special treat when I get to indulge.
