Instructions

  1. Any loaf can be used. It can be some kind of braid, you can even use Easter cake. In principle, even a baguette will do.
  2. Mix eggs with sugar and milk. Add cognac, vanillin or vanilla essence, or vanilla itself (pulp) and zest.
  3. And now you look at this muck and it is so sad, despite the fact that inside, in the composition, there is cognac ... just roar with burning tears.
  4. So let's dilute the atmosphere and put the pan on to warm up.
  5. We prepare our rolls and send them to an egg and milk bath. Butter for frying, put in a frying pan and send our toast to fry on it. Fry on both sides.
  6. In the original, ready-to-eat toast is served with honey and berries. But this picture is painfully chilly and nondescript. So I served it with a scoop of ice cream and berries!
  7. That's all my friend! Now you know one more recipe. You now have a fancy French toast in stock! Good luck!
