Easy French Toast


Easy French Toast has a secret ingredient for an extra punch of flavor.

This is a recipe I came up with a few years ago when I had some Texas toast and coffee creamer that I needed to use up. Yes, coffee creamer. Instead of using plain milk and adding vanilla and sugar, I used some Italian sweet cream coffee creamer. 

Pretty much any of them that have sweet cream in the name would definitely work, and honestly, I think a caramel one would be quite tasty as well.
