Variety of Breads Flavor French Toast

A great way to add a new face to French toast is to use different breads. Try banana, apple or zucchini bread. —Deana Waters, North Pole, Alaska

I used a Vanilla Caramel creamer and it was so delicious! Will definitely make this again.

This tastes sooo good. I use all different flavors of creamer to add variety. If you don't have pecans; it still tastes wonderful! Quick, easy and yummy!

I can't wait to try this I always buy the non dairy creamers for when my family visits and end up with left over creamers it sounds like a great way to use it up.

Delicious. My husband had always claimed my french toast was the best he had ever had until we tried this recipe. This has become not just his new favorite but mine as well. Thanks

This is one of the best french toast recipes I have ever made. I made a double batch and froze half. My kids love to microwave about 20 seconds and then pop in the toaster. Will be a staple in my freezer year round.

This is also very very good with Vanilla Caramel nondairy creamer. We like this recipe a lot. My husband is the breakfast maker and it is one of his favorites.

LOVE IT! I couldn't find the butter pecan creamer either, so I used the French vanilla and added a splash of butter rum schnapps. This will definitely become one of our favorite decadent lazy weekend brunch favorites. Thanks for sharing!
