It’s the weekend, let’s have some fun! French toast is easy, fast and a tasty treat for a weekend morning. Make it into a board and it’s perfect for entertaining! Lay your bread out the night before and this comes together quickly the next morning. No time to lay out the night before? Toss the bread in a 275 degree oven for 10 minutes to harden up and then start recipe. A kid and adult pleaser! Note, if making for a large crowd, double recipe and have an extra large board.
