Mmmmmm! French toast to go with the guillotine we’re building in the back yard! Vive la Revolution!

We are not actually building a darned thing in our yard, but the dramatic inclination went well with the French toast.

If you haven’t visited the @defiance13 Substack you should. I think you two are different sides of the same coin.

heavy cream not milk also add vanilla and cinnamon to the batter.

We leave room to add cinnamon to this basic recipe, but the point is to appreciate the buttery, eggy goodness of the brioche without vanilla. Heavy cream, which behaves more like butter than milk when heated, would make this insufferably rich. But with French bread, I think you're onto something.

As delicious as brioche French toast can be, I usually end up making a small batch with leftover homemade French bread, which might honestly be my favorite way to do it.

Oh yes, it's like going back in time to the original pain perdu!

I never knew French Toast was actually French. Are you going to tell us the same is true with Freedom Fries?
