My friend insisted that I try her recipe for French toast and I thought to myself, “What’s so different about this French toast? I mean everyone has a recipe for French toast, right?”
But THIS French toast has an entire 1/4 cup of vanilla in the coating sauce. So when it’s cooked it kind of tastes like…a donut…in French toast form.
Serve it with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and some syrup but you don’t really need any of that at all. Enjoy!
