This great classic of home cooking alone evokes Sunday mornings at Grandma’s, childhood holidays and the sweet smell that wafts through the house. Simple, authentic, and incredibly heartwarming, it’s proof that the best things are often the simplest.
Originally designed not to waste stale bread, this recipe has been transformed into a real moment of gourmet pleasure. Golden on the outside, ultra soft on the inside, French toast seduces with its contrast of textures and its sweet vanilla flavor. Served with a veil of icing sugar, a drizzle of maple syrup or some fresh fruit, it’s a delight in every bite.
In addition to its deliciousness, this recipe has another advantage: it is ultra easy to make! No special equipment, no complicated techniques… In 20 minutes, you can please the whole family with this budget-friendly and generous dessert or breakfast. It’s also a great activity to do with the kids.
The secret of its success? The right choice of bread (a little dry but not too hard), a golden bake but not burnt, and a well-flavored mixture with a touch of vanilla, even a hint of cinnamon. And if you want to twist it, it lends itself to a thousand variations, both sweet and savory.
So, are you ready to take a gustatory journey into the past? Get out your pan, stale bread and eggs, and get ready to rediscover the true taste of homemade, the one that warms the heart as much as the stomach. Let’s go for a recipe full of tenderness and memories: French toast Grandma’s way!
