The key is using thick-cut bread that's slightly stale. Day-old brioche or challah works beautifully, but any thick-sliced bread will do.
Cinnamon and vanilla give the custard mixture wonderful warmth, while a touch of sugar helps create that golden caramelized exterior.
Serve with your favorite toppings - maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or just a dusting of powdered sugar.

Day-old bread works best as it absorbs the custard without falling apart.
Keep cooked French toast warm in a 200°F oven if making a large batch.
Try stuffing with cream cheese or Nutella for a decadent twist.
Leftover French toast can be frozen and reheated in the toaster.
