Frequently Asked Questions
This easy French toast with apple twist is elegant and simple at the same time, but if you really want to elevate the flavors, you can throw some pan roasted nuts on the top before you serve, or even grate some cheddar cheese on the top to bring in a bit of that salty, savoriness.
And if you love the flavor and taste of chocolate, you can also add some mini chocolate chips into the batter and then top the French toast with some chocolate sauce before you serve. 
To make the French toast crispy, you can sprinkle a bit of brown sugar on each side and cook it for an extra minute until the sugar melts and clings to the bread. This simple technique is actually super effective and yields great results in getting the bread crispy and crunchy. 
Your leftovers can be refrigerated for 2 days when stored in an airtight container or transferred to a ziploc bag.
The best way to reheat this French toast is on a pan on medium heat, since microwaving can make it soggy and soft.
