This was really good. To combat the flour lump problem other reviewers had mentioned, I added the flour about a teaspoon at a time, whisking continually. I also used the suggestion of mixing the cinnamon in with the vanilla to dissolve it first. I have never been able to get cinnamon to incorporate in french toast batter before trying that. It worked perfectly, and I did not have lumps in the batter. I used sourdough french bread, and I would not recommend this as it left a tang that my kids did not love, and I wasn't overly crazy about. I will try this again with regular french bread. VERY good recipe that I will use from now on. Thank you for sharing!

Very Very Good! Best french toast I have ever made. Also freezes beautifully if it lasts that long.lol. Thanks for the recipe.

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!!
