[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]You don\u2019t have to be a chef in a fancy brunch spot to whip up this delectable french toast. All you need are a couple of ingredients – that are probably already lurking in the back of your fridge – and you\u2019re on the way to a 5-star breakfast.<\/p>\n

You can use pretty much any bread – if it\u2019s a little stale that\u2019s even better, as it stops the french toast from going soggy.<\/p>\n

Our ultimate French toasting tip is to use slightly stale bread. This stops the french toast from going soggy, gives your finished dish the perfect consistency and cuts down your food waste! (Did you know 20 million slices of bread <\/a>are thrown away in the UK every day?)<\/p>\n

For an extra indulgent french toast, thickly sliced challah (a braided Jewish loaf) or brioche make for a rich-tasting, sturdy base, but your classic white supermarket slice will work just as well. A slab of slowly melting butter and a drizzle of syrup makes for a delicious quick topping, or if you have a little time, check out our favourite toppings below.<\/p>\n
