I didn't see anything about heavy cream in the recipe. Ours was soggy. I used 3 eggs and milk. Not sure how you get away with 1 egg.

Zona

Hi Seasons01, correct there is no heavy cream in this recipe. I use whole milk and 1 jumbo egg every time and it always works great for me. Make sure to just coat the bread in the mixture and don't let the bread soak in it.

I love french toast..but no matter what it is always soggy...ugh!!! I finally found out the secret.....use heavy cream instead of milk....heavy cream sort of sits on top of the ingredients but milk mixes right in and seems to make it soggy every time. I only use heavy cream...it works like a charm.....and I've been looking for non-soggy french toast my entire life and found an article on this....it works!!!! Try it!! This mix is very flavorful, simple and easy. I buy at thick texas toast at the 99 cents store...its perfect!!!
