French Toast

A family favorite and a great way to use up day-old bread. If using unsliced loaves, cut half-inch thick slices on a diagonal. Maple syrup is hard to beat, but another good sauce is raspberry syrup. Fruit toppings are popular, although sliced ripe pears with chopped walnuts are delightful.
