Tasty breakfast treat! I made just as directed and my toast came out crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Next time I may put some of the sugar/cinnamon in the cornflake crumbs as well as the egg mixture. Great twist on the traditional french toast - thanks for sharing the recipe!

I enjoyed this crispy french toast. It was a nice change to the usual. It was quick and easy to make. The maple syrup is the perfect topping. Thank you for sharing this lovely treat, which I will try again.

This was easy to make and I loved the corn-flake crunch coating, a lovely spin on French toast. Topped with golden syrup..mmmm! Thanks for posting!

Was looking for a nice treat to send Dennis off to work this morning. And this was it! I didn't have cornflakes, although I did have"Frosted Flakes"~ since they were frosted I used less sugar. Took a rolling pin and "crunched" them up a bit. Dipped bread into the egg mixture and then coated them well with the cereal mixture. Added a bit of "Earth Balance" margarine, and then added some warm maple syrup on top. Yummy Julie! Made for *ZWT4* June 2008.

Very nice addition to breakfast! Did use honey bunches of oats for this recipe & cut the sugar by half, the latter mostly because I served them with a homemade strawberry syrup, which was sweet enough! Did half with regular bread & the other half with a multigrain bread, but although I liked both, I would use the multigrain next time! Thanks for the keeper!
