Choosing the Perfect Bread

Selecting the right type of bread for your French toast sticks is crucial. Here are a few options to consider:

  • Brioche: A rich, buttery bread that creates a luxurious, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
  • Challah: A slightly sweet, eggy bread that adds depth of flavor and a tender texture.
  • Texas Toast: A thick-sliced white bread that provides a sturdy base for a classic French toast experience.
  • Sourdough: A tangy option for those who prefer a less sweet breakfast treat. The choice of bread will ultimately depend on your personal preference and the flavor profile you’d like to achieve.
  • Whole Wheat Bread: A a healthy alternative, but it may result in a denser texture.

Dairy Free Substitutions

  • Replace milk with almond milk, soy milk, or your preferred dairy-free milk alternative.
  • Use a dairy-free butter substitute for frying, such as Earth Balance.

Serving Suggestions

Serve French toast sticks with maple syrup or honey for dipping. You can also offer a variety of fruit preserves or a dusting of powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness. For a complete breakfast, pair with eggs, bacon, or a side of berries and assorted fruit.

Storage & Reheating Instructions

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

To Freeze: Allow the French toast to cool completely on a wire rack before transferring it to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. You can stack the French toast with a sheet of parchment paper between each layer. Freeze until solid, and then transfer the French toast to a resealable plastic freezer bag for long-term storage.

To Reheat: Microwave each slice on high for approximately 1 minute, or until warmed through. Alternatively, toast the slices in a toaster to heat them through and achieve a crispy exterior.
