National French Toast Day

French toast is a breakfast dish made by soaking bread in a mixture of beaten eggs and milk, then frying the bread until golden brown. The bread can be sliced thick or thin, and is often left to soak in the egg mixture for several minutes to absorb the flavors. French toast is typically seasoned with cinnamon, vanilla, or other spices, and may be served with butter and syrup, powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or whipped cream. It is a popular breakfast item in many countries, including the United States, Canada, and France, where it is known as "pain perdu," or lost bread, because it was originally made as a way to use up stale bread.
