We FINALLY Figured Out...French Toast

bread

🥗Healthier: whole grain bread

💰Cheaper: stale bread

Whole grain bread is more nutritious; stale bread reduces waste.

milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: water

Almond milk is lower in calories; water is a budget-friendly option.

sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: brown sugar

Honey is a natural sweetener; brown sugar is often cheaper.

Preheat the oven to 325°F.

Place slices of Italian bread in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes to dry out, flipping halfway through.

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and semolina flour, letting it sit for a while.

Soak the dried bread in the egg mixture for about 15 minutes, flipping halfway through to absorb the liquid.

Heat butter in a skillet over medium-low heat.

Sprinkle a little sugar on top of each piece of soaked bread.

Place the bread sugar side down in the skillet, then sprinkle sugar on the other side.

Cook each piece for a few minutes per side until crispy, avoiding burnt butter.
