Using Italian Bread for French Toast?
Would this be weird? The bread says it has garlic but that's the only "Italian" ingredient I see.
Best Answer
French Toast is just French toast because you are soaking it in egg and pan or griddle frying it.
You can use white sandwich bread, Italian loaf, French baquette, wheat bread what ever. I think we evolved to this in the French toast category.
I don't think the garlic would taste good with the sweet syrup. So yeah Weird. Personal taste though. If its not an overwhelming taste of garlic it should be fine.
