Special Notes

This sourdough French toast is perfect for breakfast. The combination of sourdough bread and custard creates rich, tangy flavor. The key is to not oversoak the bread to prevent it from becoming mushy. This recipe is perfect for families and can be made ahead of time. For extra flavor, you can add different fruits or spices. The French toast should be served hot for the best taste.
