Caramelized French Toast

Do you ever wake up in the morning and wonder, "What am I going to make for breakfast?"  You are now going to have the best thing ever to put in your recipe box.  This recipe for caramelized french toast is the most delicious recipe and it doesn't even need syrup. Seriously!

Caramelized French Toast
4 Tbs. butter, divided
6 eggs
½ cup milk
1/8 tsp. salt
8 slices bread
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup water
Powdered sugar for sprinkling

Melt two tablespoons of butter in a frying pan or skillet over medium high heat. Beat together eggs, milk and salt. Dip bread one at a time into egg mixture and fry until light brown and egg is cooked.

After 4 slices of bread have been cooked, melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Cook remaining bread slices until light brown on both sides and egg is cooked. After all bread slices have been cooked and removed from pan, add brown sugar to pan. Stir until melted and sticky. Add water and stir. Place French toast in caramel sauce. Turn to coat, then remove from pan. Serve.

As I was making this recipe, I went to the refrigerator to get the milk and noticed that it two days out of date and already soured.  What do you do when you're ready to make

  1. I'm generally not a French Toast fan because of the eggs. However, this sounds tasty. I believe I'll have to try it. I'm sure you know this, but in a pinch 1/4 cup evaporated milk + 1/4 cup water = 1/2 cup milk.

  2. I should probably keep evaporated milk on hand, but I just didn't have any. :(
