Love this recipe. I was short on time so we didn't bother soking the bread. We just dipped the bread in just before frying it up. We topped the french toast with berries.

Delicious - made it for a birthday brunch for a group of ladies, together with a desert crepes, and breakfast casserole. No leftovers!
