I made this delicious brunch item using leftover stale whole wheat & Italian Bread. I read a post by Susan F. here at Just A Pinch, where she made some but they disappeared before she could take a picture. This is my version. I was out of town & this was a perfect way to use stale bread for today's Brunch. I also made Irish Bangers & Irish Bacon as well as Sausage Patties. It made everyone happy. I used Vanilla Bean Paste to add extra flavor. I served fresh Strawberries also. Everyone made happy plates, so it was enjoyed by the entire family. It is quick. simple & easy, hope you like it.

How To Make french toast brunch waffles

  • 1
    Please note that I used 2 types of bowls, a flat dish to dip the bread slices into, and a round bowl to whisk all the ingredients together. Had to add the eggs to a round bowl, to blend more evenly.
  • 2
    Add the eggs to the round bowl, add in the vanilla Bean paste, milk, salt, cinnamon, & sugar, then whisk together till completely blended. PREHEAT GRIDDLE IRON, AND SPRAY both top & bottom WITH NON STICK COOKING SPRAY.
  • 3
    Pour egg mixture into flat bowl.
  • 4
    Add bread slices to the dish with the egg mixture, be sure to coat bread on both sides.
  • 5
    Remove bread with slotted spatula onto hot griddle. Lower lid and press down slightly, and brown till golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Repeat until all of the slices are cooked.
  • 6
    Serve with your favorite sides. Top with your favorite syrup and Butter while still hot. Or enjoy plain with butter.
