Did you know?

French toast dates back to Roman times, where it was called Aliter Dulcia (“another sweet dish”).
It’s also called “eggy bread” in the UK and “pain perdu” in France, meaning “lost bread,” because it uses stale bread to reduce waste.
Popular toppings include maple syrup, powdered sugar, fresh fruit, and whipped cream.
Savory versions exist too, topped with cheese, herbs, or bacon.
