💭 Angela’s Tips & Recipe Notes To avoid SOGGY French toast, be sure to flip and coat the sourdough bread slices quickly. Some types of bread absorb the liquids super fast, which will result in soggy bread. Sourdough doesn’t seem to be as quick to absorb, but I still recommend moving through the process quickly for the best results.You can omit the cinnamon and nutmeg if desired, or swap out different sweeteners like honey. Try a different extract flavoring. Almond extract is amazing when you top your French toast with whipped cream and fresh fruit!To keep your cooked sourdough French toast slices warm, you can place them onto a baking sheet and keep them in a warm oven at 250ºF (121ºC) until all of your French toast is ready to serve. 🥡 Storing & Reheating To store in the refrigerator or freezer, stack your french toast with a square of wax paper or parchment paper between the slices. Then wrap the stack of french toast with aluminum foil securely.
Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. The easiest way to reheat this classic breakfast is to pop your slices in the toaster. You can, of course, heat them in the microwave as well. However, heat the leftover French toast carefully and just enough to enjoy them before overcooking. You don’t want chewy, rubbery toast! 😋 More Great Breakfast Recipes!
