For some reason I always think of French Toast as being such a production. The mixing, the dipping, the cooking...it's not fast enough when you have a starving crowd on Saturday morning. However, once you get the steps down, it is actually really easy and quick to cook. I threw this together for a family breakfast last weekend to go along with the Easy Cheese Danish I made the night before. When we were finished we were in a carbohydrate induced coma and it was wonderful.

I made this all the time, it's a family's favorite, my only addition is a bit of vanilla extract, yummy!

You are right, I totally forgot to add that in my recipe list/directions! Total brain failure!

Exactly the way we make it too. Just had some on Sunday morning. Its a favourite, as well as pancakes or waffles.
