What is the best bread for French toast sticks

  • You can use any bread on hand for Homemade French Toast Sticks. But the thicker the bread, the chewier and more delicious your French toast sticks will be.
  • We like to use a loaf of Texas Toast that can easily be purchased at most grocery stores. We have even sliced a loaf of French Bread. That way you can slice it to your desired thickness.
  • Homemade bread is also another great option. You can easily switch it up for white or wheat bread. The options are endless and they all result in yummy French Toast sticks for you and your family.
  • are french toast sticks messy?

When making French toast sticks, there are a few easy steps. None of them resulted in a lot of clean up. The bread will need to be sliced, which is simple to do on a cutting board. They are not messy to prepare.

You will dip the sliced bread into the beaten egg mixture and then place them in the pan. That’s about it. Pretty easy clean up.

The kids can eat them with their hands when sprinkled with powdered sugar. You can also dip these French Toast sticks in syrup. Kids love to the simplicity of picking their food and dipping it. We have food dippers at our house.

You will want to use a fork if the French Toast Sticks have been covered in syrup. That is how we prefer to eat them. Syrup makes everything taste delicious.

After the butter is melted, dip each piece of bread in egg mixture, let excess batter drip off and place in pan. Be sure not to place in too many. It’s hard to flip them over if the pan is crowded.

Once one side is golden brown, flip over and cook the other side until golden brown and crispy on the outside.

  5. Stephanie {} says:

    Thank you so much for this recipe, you make a French Toast lover truly happy. :)- Stephanie (Spaceships and Laser Beams)

  6. Sarah says:

    Hey Ladies, I'm just letting you know that I found your photo along with this recipe on a site that likes to copy/paste recipes, crop your watermark out of the photo, and then has a tricky ad right where it says "printable recipe"...anyway, they did the same thing to me a couple of weeks ago and I just wanted to let you know so that if you have a problem with it, you can email them demanding that they remove it and it should be down pretty quickly. I'm in the process of trying to report them to google for copyright infringement, so hopefully their entire site will get shut down soon. Let me know if you need more information.

  7. Cyd says:

    You should be able to make them and stick them in freezer bags. Just reheat and eat!

  8. Jane H. says:

    I make these for my grandkids...I call them snowflake toast. They pretend it is snowing on the toast as we sprinkle powdered sugar over them.

  9. deanie says:

    Omg they look good...maybe someone will make them for me on my birthday

  10. Dani says:

    I have been looking for brillant French toast recipes or ages, so glad I have foudn this one. No more boring Saturday breakfast. From a very happy Londoner, x

  11. Marie Czarnecki says:

    This is not a friendly print recipe, print friendly did not print and I had to print the whole page, what a waste of paper!!! Thanks!!!

  12. Brooks Sloan says:

    A step appears to be missing... what is done with the melted butter?

  13. Cyd says:

    In the directions it says to melt the butter in the saucepan and then cook the french toast in it.

  14. Wendy says:

    A big hit with the family! Can't wait to freeze them and see how it taste when reheated. Thanks for sharing :-)

  15. Michael says:

    What temperature is oven and how long on each side

  16. Cyd says:

    These do not cook in the oven. They cook on the stove top. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. After butter is melted, dip each piece of bread in egg mixture, let excess drip off and place in heated saucepan. Cook on one side until golden, then flip over and cook on the other side. (You could also cook them on a pancake griddle.)

  17. Tammy Moreno says:

    I'm lactose intolerant, can I leave out the whipping cream in this recipe, Im using lactaid milk ...will it still turn out delicious?

  18. Cyd says:

    Hi Tammy. We have only made this recipe as stated in the directions. If you have substituted lactaid in other recipes, I'm sure it will work in this one too. Sorry we are not more help, we haven't made this recipe using lactaid.

  19. Nancy says:

    Oh how I wish I had known about this 40 years ago! Two boys. Running late for school. I am going to send them this recipe! They are great cooks and have boys!! THANK YOU! Love your recipes!

  20. Cyd Adamson says:
