Instructions

  1. The bread should be a day or two old and as thick as a finger. Whisk a little sugar and a pinch of salt with the eggs and milk. Place the bread slices in the egg milk and turn them a few times. Then fry in hot, but not brown, butter until golden brown on both sides. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. Vanilla sauce and compote go well with this. Tip: The knights must be crispy on the outside but soft on the inside. You can bread the slices with breadcrumbs before frying them.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
