I prefer Canadian Toast myself. You know, it's the toast that sits in it's place properly and won't mistakenly drop a vanilla bomb on his allies, the bacon bits or the scrambled eggs. God damn, I'm terrible.

And yes, I put syrup on everything. Even women.

I fucking love homemade sausage patties with good Canadian maple syrup in the mix.

When I make french toast i take like three eggs, scramble them with milk, dip the bread in them and then cook the bread.

I know what french toast is.

You only put in like 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract into that mix with a generous sprinkling of cinnamon. Unless you have some adverse hatred of vanilla flavor or cinnamon, it makes the flavor of the whole thing really stand out. Maybe you should actually try it before declaring it disgusting.

btw, three eggs is a shit ton of eggs for a single serving of french toast. You should use 1 egg per 4 slices. I think the problem is URE DOIN IT WRONG![/QUOTE]

I don't think I have ever made french toast just for myself. That is how we make it for my family breakfast which can be 4 to 8 people depending on who my sister has over.

I don't want to eat vanilla in french toast. It's not that big of a deal really.

The only good syrup worth using is 10 dollars for a tiny 10 oz jar directly imported from Canada or Vermont, I always say!

No it's not a big deal, but I'm just saying you should try it. It won't kill you.

Only for Special Pancake Evenings.

I'm so glad that the Annual Elmira Maple Syrup Festival is literally a 15 minute drive away.

It's like a very selective and very delicious form of Farmer's Market.

Also I don't use vanilla either. Mostly because I'm lazy but also because my french toast is a little more savoury than sweet.

I haven't had French toast in years.

And now I want some.

And the shops are closed.

Goddammit.

Also, fun fact: in Finnish, French toast is known as köyhät ritarit, 'poor knights'. Don't ask me why. Probably because it's relatively easy and cheap to make, yet has this rich quality to it.

I think he doesn't have the ingredients. And since it's 3 am next Tuesday over there in Fin-Town nobody is open for him to buy the stuff.

for those who say they don't like vanilla because they don't like sweet french toast:

VANILLA IS NOT SWEET! It's a flavor. It's no more sweet than cinnamon is sweet. If you think either one of those are sweet, I challenge you to eat a big ol' spoonful of the raw spice. You'll quickly learn otherwise. Hopefully you won't choke to death on the cinnamon powder. ;)

If you don't like sweet french toast, don't put sugar in the egg mix. I don't.

It's not like vanilla in french toast is some kind of weird one-off phenomenon. It's a fairly standard concoction of the recipe

Putting a bit of vanilla is tons of sweet dishes and baking happens all the time. Why are people surprised?

If it tastes like vanilla, you probably put way too much in. There should just be a hint of vanilla, if anything.

Absolutely, and cinnamon and clove are used in savory dishes in Indian food. They are certainly not sweet.

I dont put vanilla it mine because I dont like vanilla-y french toast. I dont put sugar in the mix either but i might put it on top. but usually not.

my favorite way to eat french toast is in a monte cristo sandwich, without sugar on it. all savory. mmmm. now i am hungry.

I don't add vanilla to my french toast either. I have nothing againist it, I've just never really thought about it.

My french toast is super basic though. I just dip the bread in the egg & start cooking. Add syrup & it's ready.

The best thing though is french toast with a scoop of vanilla ice cream & hot syrup. More dessert than breakfast but it's damn good.

You're all making me mad that I've used up all of my brother in-law's homemade maple syrup. I'm going to have to make a trip up there and steal some more.

.......savory french toast!?

YOU PEOPLE DISGUST ME!!

You put powdered sugar AND maple syrup LIBERALLY over the french toast. ALWAYS. There will be no talk of "french toast" in a motherfucking sandwich, that is not french toast that's... egged bread. Or something.

Seriously.

And you think vanilla is gross? You've got a fucked up palate hun.

Using french toast as sandwich bread... that's something Homer Simpson would do.

No. That looks like a wannabe grilled cheese sandwich.

no? It is a grilled cheese sandwich with meat in it and instead of plain old toast, it has french toast.

you were the one who said that you can make different things with similar ingredients.


It is delicious. And fun to to make.

mmmmmm french toast. Mine is soaked until the bread is just about to fall apart so it's chock full of that eggy-custardy goodness. Mine resembles bread pudding I make it so dense. Then yes.... the maple syrup.

NOM!~

Ah french toast. The only thing I can make better than anyone else I know. Granted, I've never tried with vanilla or sugar or cinnammon. I usually just make it with egg and milk batter and smother it with butter. I'll have to give your guys methods a shot this weekend.
