Getting a decent breakfast on the table before school or work is usually a mess. Our classic french toast recipe is a good middle ground because it feels like a treat for the kids but skips the heavy cream and butter that usually leads to a mid-morning sugar crash. It only takes about ten minutes to pull together and uses basic pantry staples like egg whites and cinnamon. It is a simple way to feed the family something warm without making the kitchen feel like a disaster zone.
