I had a hankering for some French Toast- or Texas Toast as some of you may know it as.

It is so yummy- I can't believe that it has been years since I made it. Depending on what kind of bread you have makes all the world of difference. I just happened to have some of the Rustic Panne from Trader Joe's- I love it because it is dense and holey and chewy. It makes THE BEST french toast.If you can't find this, any kind of dense bread works- actually if it is a day stale- even better!
Dip the bread in the egg batter
A pat of butter melting in your pan
Grill it until it is a lovely shade of brown- mmm caramelized.
Give me some of that sugar!

The kids are scarfing it down. One more piece please?
