French Toast from a French Maman


French Toast or "pain perdu" is usually eaten at the 4pm snack "gouter" and is made of left over bread!
I was so surprised when I first order French Toast in the US, it was a soggy square sandwich bread, it tasted like omelet, YUCK!
Well let me share with you the french recipe!

Buy some good french bread, slice it up the day before,

Batter for 2 people:

-whole milk ( 6 ounces )
-1 egg

Dip the bread on both side in the batter for about 5 seconds on each side

On medium heat in a pan melt some butter, then start cooking the french toast until golden brown.

Tip: Put some turbinado sugar 2 minutes before the end of cooking, it will melt and give a good caramel taste.
