French toast for a hungry family
-
6 slices fruit bread or chocolate swirl bread
-
6 slices crumpet bread
-
4 large eggs (5 small eggs)
-
1/3 cup milk
-
2 tablespoons sugar
-
butter and oil for frying
Step 1 - Beat eggs, milk and sugar in a bowl. Heat frying pan with butter and oil (the oil is to ensure that the butter doesn't burn, the butter is for taste). Dip the slices of bread into mixture just before frying (don't do this too ahead of time or the bread, if fresh, will fall apart). Repeat with remaining slices and serve with bacon or jams and preserves.
Variations: add 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon orange rind and 1 tablespoon orange juice to egg and milk mixture
