LEMON ZEST FRENCH TOAST

I'm just loving French Toasts, can't get enough of em'. If you haven't tried my Cinnamon French Toast, please do, I promise you will not regret it. Right now we are going all Lemony and I used White Bread this time. I love both Wholewheat and White Bread, even though I am trying to eat all healthy. White Bread normally has more sugar as compared to Whole wheat Bread, and we know where our sugar cravings always lead us to. The battle of giving in to sweet things is yet to be won. As we fight on, we might as well enjoy a little indulgence. French Toasts are always the bomb! A great way to turn boring ol' bread into a culinary perfection worthy dish.I kid you not. If you want a buttery French Toast you can spread it on both sides with Butter before dipping it in the Egg mixture and you can use the Butter to cook the French Toast. They were hardly done and yet I wanted to bite into them because of the delicious aroma from the Lemon Zest. The moment you place the French Toasts on the sizzling Pan, you get this yummy aroma from the Pan which makes your hunger escalate! I know I have no favorites but this Lemon Zest French Toast is my favorite, okay I said it, favourite French Toast hands down! Let's get cooking peeps!

Ingredients

-2 Eggs
-4 White Bread Pieces
-1 Cup Lemon Zest
-Pinch Salt
-Oil for frying

Method
-Beat Eggs in a bowl and add Salt

-Pour Eggs in a large bowl that can hold the Bread well so they can soak up the Egg mixture evenly. Add in the grated Lemon Zest

-Beat the mixture well so that the Lemon Zest is evenly distributed in the Eggs

-Place a piece of the White Bread inside the Lemon Zest and Egg mixture. Gently press so that the Bread soaks up the Egg mixture

-Gently lift the soaked bread and allow some of the excess Egg and Lemon Zest mixture to fall back on the bowl/plate

-Place the piece of White Bread back into the bowl so that the second side can soak up too. If you do not want the Bread to soak up too much Egg mixture, just place the Bread in the Egg mixture and turn the other side immediately

-Repeat until all the Egg and Lemon Zest mixture has been used up or you run out of bread slices

-Heat your Non-Stick Pan (best for making French Toast, but pretty much every food)

-Gently place one of the White Bread slices on the Non-Stick Pan and let the Bread cook for a few seconds. You will see the edges start to brown

-Flip it slowly and let the other side cook for a few seconds

-Cook all the other White Bread Lemon Zest French Toasts and lay them on a Kitchen Paper to keep warm

-Serve immediately with a drink of your choice. Or you can have them on their own, like I did
