There is a reason why French toast is such an iconic breakfast dish. It is tasty and easy to make, and you probably have all the ingredients in your kitchen to cook it up.
The basic recipe for French toast is usually the same for most people. You dip a slice of bread in egg mixture and then fry it in a pan until it’s golden brown on both sides. Along the way, you can customize it in a number of ways, including adding ingredients like cinnamon or vanilla extract to the egg mixture and topping it with honey, maple syrup, or icing sugar.
But what if we told you that the core formula can be improved upon in order to give you the best French toast you have ever tried?
TikTok Hack for Better French Toast
TikTok user Sheena recently uploaded a video in which she revealed a simple but genius hack that changed the way she makes French toast. She first toasted the bread and then dipped it into the egg mixture.
The video quickly blew up, reaching close to 30 million views and attracting 40K comments from perplexed users who couldn’t believe they didn’t think of it before.
There are several reasons why Sheena’s hack works. First of all, you get more evenly cooked French toast and avoid getting it soggy from the egg mixture. Also, the toasted French toast still remains crispy even if you top it with butter or maple syrup. But don’t believe us, try it yourself.
