Impress Someone
Add 2T grated orange zest to your egg mixture or replace 4T of the milk with sweet liquor (brandy, whisky, triple sec all work).
Alternative: Savoury French Toast*
Replace cinnamon in the egg mix with 1/2 t salt and pepper. Fry eight bacon rashers and four tomatoes before frying the bread, and 100g button mushrooms afterwards (seasoning with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice afterwards). Divide up and serve with your fresh toast. Om nom nom.
