French toast is always better if your bread is a little dry — a day or two old, or leave the slices out overnight. Serve these crusty slices with bacon and warmed maple syrup, jam, or marmalade, or sprinkle them with a mixture of cinnamon and sugar.
Ingredients
6 slices
Mix the eggs, salt, sugar, and milk in a shallow dish or pie pan. Soak the bread in the mixture until soft, turning once. Cook on a hot, well-greased skillet or frying pan, turning to brown on each side.

I wish someone would fix the typo before more people waste food. My instinct told me the salt was a typo but I still added quite a bit before checking the reviews. Please. Change this.

I've had French toast before and somehow I remember it more yummy and comforting (and fattening!) than this. I took the advice of previous reviewers in adding vanilla extract & cinnamon. I sprinkled sugar on top but they just weren't anything special.

I wrote another review before but it isn't showing up ? I wouldn't use the salt. I always put a ton of cinnamon on my french toast. And, I usually put some vanilla extract in. Lastly, I have never put sugar in the egg mix. Sometimes I use some powdered sugar, but it is all preference. Great recipe.

Great recipe! I always, always add a ton of cinnamon it adds so much flavor. and of course, some powdered sugar. Leave out the salt, there is no need for it.

This recipe was/is delcious! Definitely add the nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla that other reviewers recommended. Also, the idea of having the bread be a little dry to start would help make for a little crispier toast. This recipe is a keeper for sure!!

The salt measurement is a typo. It should be a 1/2 teaspoon, not tablespoon. But as another reviewer noted, why add any?

I used slices of french bread, and added cinnimon like someone suggested. I had to soak the bread slices a little longer, but it was delicious.

Skip the salt, why bother? I used my homemade whole wheat bread with sunflower and fenel, gave it a nutty flavor. Excellent.

Whoops. Yes, DEFINITELY a typo with the salt amount. If only I had read these reviews FIRST! The recipe is simple and yummy... add some cinnamon (a little less than 1 TBSP) to the mixture and then put powdered sugar on top when you serve.
