    Great French toast - as good as (or better) than Denny's! TIP: Mix the cinnamon into the vanilla before adding to the egg mixture - it won't float on top. Thanx for posting Earnhardt!

    Wow! Are my friends impressed with me! I used french bread that I sliced 1" thick at a slant, and followed everything else as directed except for adding a little extra milk at the end to make the last bit of egg mixture go a little further. I had enough of the mixture for the whole loaf of bread. Be careful not to get your griddle too hot. Served this with bacon and homemade hot maple syrup and my guests are still raving. Delicious!!
