Café-Style French Toast
The secret behind café French toast: after frying the egg-dipped bread until golden, toss it in melted butter, sugar and a little cinnamon so it caramelizes into a crisp, glossy crust — then finish with chocolate, honey or caramel and your favourite fruit.

✦ Chef Noor's Tip
Use thick slices of slightly stale bread — they soak up the custard without falling apart and caramelize beautifully.
