    I can’t believe my wife of 30 years just said I made the best French toast it was 100 times better than hers! It’s our little secret guys! Thank you!

    Just made this this morning. Delicious! Highly suggest making sure the pan is super greased with cooking spray before laying the bread down. Keep the broiler to 2 minutes or less.

    I can’t wait till the next family breakfast/brunch get together “You get French toast and You get French Toast...EVERYBODY GETS FRENCH TOAST!”

    Love when they discover techniques that improve efficiency and results on classics. This was a win win. And this leaves your stove top available to do your sausage or eggs etc

    This is genius! Where was this technique the last 28 years of my life while I was making breakfast for my family? And I thought a stove top griddle was a clever purchase because I could make 6 at a time. I could've used my full sheet pan and made 16 at a time! And we all would've been sitting eating at once instead of me standing at the stove serving the kids and then finally eating after everyone else was done.

    She kept calling the egg mix a custard, I never thought of it that way, hey learn something new everyday.

    I learn so much from America's Test Kitchen. Not only do they showcase great recipes but I think the best part is learning from watching their amazing and, like this French Toast recipe, surprising techniques. Bravo!

    Just made this over the weekend. I could have used this technique about 15 years ago! This is the only way I am cooking French toast from now on!!!!!

    I finally made this, it turned out great. I bake in a toaster oven so my biggest sheet pan that fits that oven only holds 6 pieces of bread so I adjusted the custard ingredients a little bit, it still worked and was delicious and it beats dipping & flipping bread at a skillet. Living alone I gotta also mention this is great for breakfast prepping, or breakfast for supper days. One cook is 3 servings of french toast for me. I can't see ever making french toast in a skillet again. The texture was so much better this way, not soggy as skillet fried can sometimes get and the crispy edges are sooo good. Perfectly flavored. The left overs just seal the deal👍🏼 Thanks!!

    ATK is the only cooking instruction I need and rely on whether those instructions come from their website, shows or cookbooks. Their recipes include necessary shortcuts for the everyday cook so you’re not spending a lot of time in the kitchen and the meals always turn out awesome. Thank you so much ATK for your many years of service. WELL DONE! 😊🙏🏾🙏👏

    I have a nephew that loves French toast and I've made some and frozen it for future visits. This is great because I can make a bunch and have at the ready.

    Every recipe I've tried from these talented ladies came out so delicious. I tried pancakes, french toast, and other recipes. Never had any recipe failed me. So good! Thanks, ladies you're awesome!

    I absolutely love this! I tried it for the first time & I'll definitely do it again. I like french toast but I'm not a fan of the doughiness it can sometimes have. This way takes that away for the most part❤️

    I've been making french toast similar to this, letting the bread soak up all the custard first, but then cook in the waffle iron for 4-5 minutes. French toast waffles are my families favorite way to have french toast now. Can't cook them all at the same time like this, but they sure are yummy, and it's worth the wait.

    I used to work at a hospital kitchen and we baked huge batches of French toast. Love the texture of it, much crispier than frying it. We didn't use the broiler technique on top, just flipped it.

    Tried this morning and this is easily my new favorite french toast recipe. Added some nutmeg to the recipe and it was definitely a welcomed addition.
