Recipe Tips & Notes
It is common for French toast to be made with day-old slices. This is because they absorb the eggy mixture better than fresh bread. Of course, a slightly stale gluten free loaf is certainly not a requirement. If you only have fresh gluten free bread on hand, that’ll work just fine too.

Great, classic gluten free french toast. I really enjoyed the taste, although I would probably use less nutmeg next time. I used the rest of a loaf of Promise brioche bread that we had bought the night before, so that made it extra tasty. I also cover the pan with a lid so the middle will also cook.
Works out perfect every time!
This is a great, simple recipe for gluten free french toast. If your using thicker bread or are soaking the bread for a while, I would suggest covering the griddle or pan with a lid. This will cook the inside of the bread, making it less soggy….I also prefer to use butter or margarine in the pan rather than oil, gives it more flavor.
I have now tried this with every gluten free bread I eat, and every one worked. Love this french toast!
Love, love, LOVEEEEEE this recipe!
Love making this with the Gluten Free Brioche bread from Promise Gluten Free!
Excellent French toast! I follow the directions to a T and included the vanilla (I used crushed vanilla) and came out perfectly 😋
Made it for my husband and myself and we both love it. Will definitely be making them again.
I always make a new recipe as directed, this one needs no tweaking! Super good and easy, family loved it! Thank you very much for sharing!
Easy, simple, and quick to make in the morning for the kids or family
Followed recipe including optional items and loved this French toast. I used a Gluten Free Brioche bread. Served with butter, pure maple syrup and blackberries.
Turned out great. I only cooked them for less time because I had my heat on higher
Really good! I thought of it as pancake when I ate it , terms of texture, which is awesome as it didnt have a rubbery texture that some catch with the egg
Everyone LOVED this French toast. I normally dont like homemade frnch toast because it always has a egg taste to it but this recipe didnt have that at all. It tasted delicious! I doubled the recipe to feed my fam of 7 and did half milk half heavy cream and it came out perfectly.
I liked how easy it was to make and how delicious it was. And I would suggest Thicker Bread would be a great idea .
