This recipe was a disaster! The French toast was dry and the nut topping was too hard. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The French toast was good, but the nut topping was not my favorite. I think it would be better with a different topping.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I ended up burning the French toast and the nut topping was a mess. I would not recommend this recipe to beginner cooks.

I followed the recipe exactly and the French toast turned out perfectly. The nut topping was a bit too sweet for my taste, but that's just a personal preference. Overall, this is a great recipe.

I've tried many French toast recipes, but this one is by far the best. The nut topping sets it apart from the rest. It's a perfect balance of sweet and savory.
