      Insider Info

        • Be creative. Try a different bread, such as brioche, French or Italian. Add a splash of Grand Marnier to the egg mixture. Substitute apple juice or cider for the orange juice; cinnamon for the nutmeg.
        • Skillet method: Place as many soaked bread slices in lightly greased hot skillet as will fit in single layer. Cook over medium heat until golden brown and no visible liquid egg remains, turning once.
        • To freeze French toast, cool slices on wire rack. Place in single layer on baking sheet and freeze 1 to 2 hours. Wrap airtight in serving-size portions; freeze up to 1 month. To reheat, unwrap slices and heat in toaster, toaster oven or on an ungreased baking sheet in preheated 375°F oven for 8 to 10 minutes.
