Notes
Tips and Suggestions
- Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract or bourbon (or both) to the batter before mixing.
- Leave your challah slices out the night before so that the bread dries out. Yes, technically you will be making it "stale" but it is in a controlled way. The reason you may want to do this is that the drier the bread, the more batter it will soak up. Think of the difference between a wet sponge and a dry sponge.
- Top with blueberries, strawberries, or bananas.
- Make Challah French Toast into a dessert by adding berries, vanilla ice cream, and chocolate syrup.
- Have this recipe in mind and make extra challahs for Shabbat or Rosh Hashanah.
- For those leaving a cooking flame on over Yom Tov, this makes a perfect breakfast or brunch treat.
