Baguette French Toast is a sophisticated twist on a traditional breakfast food.
I was shocked when I saw this simple fun twist to a basic breakfast food. I’m always looking for fun ways to feed my family and sometimes it helps to make it a little fancy. This baguette French toast is a perfect switch up in your regular meal planning.
Ingredients
- 1 baguette
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 c milk
- 1 T cinnamon
- 1 t vanilla
Instructions
- Slice the baguette into 1/2-1 inch pieces.
- Beat the egg mixture together.
- Coat each side of the bread in the egg mixture.
- Cook on medium heat and flip.
- Serve with powdered sugar, berries and cream.
I love how simple it is to make and how much my little family loves it! Sometimes I’ll buy two baguettes and freeze what we don’t eat because my kids love eating it for breakfast too.
My only advice is don’t wait too long to make it after buying the baguettes because they only stay soft for a day, maybe two. Last time I purchased baguettes for French toast I waited too long and had to saw through the bread which immediately crumbled. We made the most of it and took it to the duck park to share with our feathered friends but had to stomp on it to break it into smaller pieces.
I love decorating them with powdered sugar and fresh berries but you could be so creative and your family will think you are the best! So change up your dinner routine and add a little breakfast to the menu. I love this meal because I always have breakfast for the following day/ days to come.
Give them a try! You will love this easy addition to your meal planning.
