- Eggs: Use large, fresh eggs and mix well with milk.
- Cinnamon and vanilla extract: The aroma of vanilla and cinnamon is very compatible with French toast, so do not forget them at all.

How to Make French Toasts Like a Pro?
- French toast ends up soggy when the bread soaks up too much of the egg and milk mixture. Soak the bread in the mixture for a couple of seconds per side.
- Do not put many bread slices in the pan at the same time.
- To make the French toast, you must use bread that is one day past its production date. Fresh bread is not suitable for making French toast because it crumbles.
FAQs
What Bread Makes the Best Toast?
I mostly use brioche, challah, or white bread to make French toast. Use thick enough bread slices for French toast. Too thin slices will fall apart easily.
Why Is My French Toast Soggy?
Don’t soak bread slices for too long. This causes the bread to absorb too much custard and you will likely end up with soggy French toast.

It seems so yummy, Lovely samira
Say what? The ingredients list says one egg, the instructions say mix the eggs. The cinnamon and sugar are mixed together on a plate but never referred to in the instructions.
