Cut the bread into thick slices, about 1 inch thick, to prevent it from becoming soggy.
Soak the bread slices in the egg mixture for at least 5 minutes, or up to overnight, to ensure that they are evenly coated and cooked through.
Use a variety of cornflakes to add different flavors and textures to the coating. Crushed cornflakes, cornflake crumbs, or even flavored cornflakes can be used.
Press the cornflake coating firmly onto the bread slices to ensure that it adheres well.
Bake the French toast at a high temperature, around 400°F (200°C), to create a crispy coating and a fluffy interior.
Serve the French toast immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or fresh fruit.
