Ingredients Needed

• Bread
• Eggs
• Whipping cream
• Ground cinnamon
• Vanilla
• Butter

• Pin it For Later

Recipe Notes

• I recommend using thick bread for french toast. A brioche or Texas toast are great options.  Now, you can use any type of bread for it.  However, the thicker bread will do a better job at absorbing the milk/egg mixture.
• Whipping Cream: If you don't have any on hand, whole milk will work best.  However, you can use whatever type you have in your kitchen.
• Storage: Keep any leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator.  It's best eaten within a week.  
• Freezing: This will freeze great! Let it cool completely, then, store in a freezer safe, covered container or storage bag.  It will stay good for several months.  When you are ready, you can reheat in the microwave or toaster. 
• This recipe will feed about 4 adults.  If desired, it can be doubled very easily.
