DiDi's French Toast

Today was French Toast Sunday! There are many secrets to getting really good French Toast. You must use a good thick, dense bread and half-n-half instead of just milk. I used to use sugar & vanilla in mine, but have found that maple syrup has all the goody you need and adds that great maple flavor! Be sure to make some Hot Buttermilk Syrup to go on top! That's in a previous video. 😜 Y'all go make you some!

DiDi's French Toast
8 pieces of thick, dense bread
3 eggs
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream (You can substitute 1 cup of half-n-half for the milk & cream if you have it.)
2 TBSPs maple syrup
Butter
vegetable oil

Beat eggs with milk & cream or half-n-half. Add maple syrup and mix. Heat 2 TBSPs butter & 2 TBSPs oil in a large skillet on medium to medium high. DO NOT OVERHEAT. Dip bread one at a time into egg mixture. Push down to soak & flip over to make sure it is soaked good. Let drip & add to skillet. Cover with a lid. Cook one minute on each side. Flip every minute so it does not burn. You can cover with your favorite toppings, but we love Hot Buttermilk Syrup, powdered sugar & fresh strawberries.
