Tips:

Use a thick, hearty bread for your French toast, such as challah, brioche, or Texas toast.
Cut the bread slices into thick, even pieces so that they will cook evenly.
Make sure the butter is hot and bubbly before adding the bread slices.
Cook the bread slices over medium heat so that they have time to soak up the egg mixture and cook through without burning.
Flip the bread slices halfway through cooking so that they cook evenly on both sides.
Top the French toast slices with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh fruit.
