I loved this recipe, it is the simplest way to make French toast and yummy. I added almond extract and nutmeg to the recipe though.
French Toast Waffles
Photography: Becky Luigart-Stayner; Styling: Jen Rotenstreich
A waffle maker creates a crisp, brown French toast without a skillet. Just make sure you start with slightly hardened bread so that the toast won't be soggy. Serve toast with fresh berries, powdered sugar, or maple syrup.
