The challah I’ve had was a little sweeter than other white breads but not really what I would call a “sweetbread”. My Mom made the best French toast growing up. She didn’t add any sugar to the eggs and milk dipping batter (since the maple syrup poured on it is sweet) but she also added some vanilla and a few dashes of cinnamon. LOVE it!
i didn’t think of adding a spice, that would be good.
i’m not a big syrup fan, so try to get the flavor from the bread. i think i’ll add a splash of maple syrup and a bit of cardamom and fresh nutmeg and cinnamon next time.
yum, maybe that should be today! lol
