Notes

For extra flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon into the egg mixture.
Serve the toast fresh for the best texture, and consider garnishing with powdered sugar, fresh berries, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days, or frozen for a month. Reheat in the oven for best results to maintain crispness.
