HINTS AND TIPS
nThe French Toast Maker has a non-stick surface for
even baking and easy clean–up. A small amount of oil
can be added to the unit for additional flavor, if
desired. Cooking spray is not recommended as it
may harm the not-stick surface.
nSlightly stale bread or somewhat dry bread works
best.
nFor your next French Toast, substitute Heavy cream or
half and half for the milk and see what a difference it
makes.
nIf you like a crunchy French toast, use a little flour in
your egg/milk mixture.
nThere’s really no rule for the amount of eggs and milk
to use. The heavier the mixture is with eggs the more
dense the french toast will be. If you prefer a lighter
french toast, add a bit more milk.
