Notes
If your kids love French toast sticks, you will want to take the extra step of slicing this French toast recipe into sticks then serving.
While the bread only has to soak for at least an hour, this recipe is even better if the bread soaks in the egg and milk mixture overnight. Making ahead then cooking in the morning works great.
Leftovers can be stored in the fridge in an air-tight container for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave until warm then drizzle with syrup and/or top with fruit.
Freezing makes for a great grab n go breakfast. Cool completely then freeze slices in a single layer on a parchment lined baking sheet. Once frozen, place all slices into a Ziploc bag, labeland store for up to 3 months.
Along with the syrup and fruit, powdered sugar, cinnamon & sugar, chopped nuts or honey are tasty toppings.
