Notes
- Don’t dip too early. Be sure the pan is nice and hot before you dip the sandwiches into the egg mixture. If it sits too long the bread will become soggy.
- Try Texas toast. White bread works great but if you want a stronger bread, thick Texas toast is a wonderful substitute.
- Experiment with jam flavors. Use any flavor of jam such as raspberry or mixed berry in place of strawberry. Preserves can be used, too.
