Make the French Toast in groups.
As you dip the bread, heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a big nonstick pan on medium-low heat. Cook two slices of soaked bread until they are a deep golden brown, the custard is firm, and the inside is cooked, for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Do the same with the rest of the bread, melt one more tablespoon of butter, and then add two more slices. It is important to keep an eye on the bread while cooking and adjust the heat to medium or medium-low to ensure that the slices turn golden evenly.
Try different toppings.
While maple syrup, butter, and powdered sugar are traditional toppings for French toast, you can also use sliced fresh fruit to garnish your dish. Or walnuts that have been toasted. If you have some time and want to add something extra to your dish, you could try making a simple vanilla whipped cream, pear compote, or salted bourbon caramel sauce. Take it to the next level. What is the reason for that?
