Combine eggs, flour, baking powder, sugar & salt in a shallow dish; add 1/2 cup of the milk & blend.
Pour remaining mild in a second dish.
Melt shortening in heavy skillet or electric skillet. Dip bread, one piece at a time, in the milk, then batter. Turn to coat both sides.
Fry till golden brown on one side. Flip, cover skillet so batter will puff & cook until second side is golden.
Makes 4 servings of 3 pieces.
This is my grandma's recipe - many people over the years have enjoyed this french toast. I find that I can get a make a few more pieces than the recipe calls for because there is always remaining batter. Left-overs freeze well, just microwave them for a 1 minute to thaw and pop in the toaster for a bit to get crispy again.
Mr Breakfast would like to thank amydavis70 for this recipe.
Latest Breakfast Lover Comments for Fluffy French Toast

Has anyone noticed that in the "Fluffy French Toast" recipe it mentions the word 'mild' instead of 'milk' ? I think this may be an error. I haven't made the recipe yet due to this error.
Note from Mr B: Hi Sweetie - I fixed that spelling mistake. Thanks for pointing it out.
