I used this recipe as a base to go off of. I doubled the recipe and got 12 slices of Texas toast out of it. I also substituted pumpkin pie spice for all of the other spices (I was in a hurry). And then I baked them on a cookie sheet. My family loved it and I plan to make again. Thanks for posting!

I made this for myself and my two boys ages 4, and 2. They both devoured it (and the 2 year old is very picky). I liked it better than traditional French Toast.<br/>I used pumpkin pie spice in place of clove and ginger. I only used 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and didn't miss the other.<br/>I used whole wheat bread and didn't feel like that took away from the recipe at all.<br/><br/>One thing to note: It did not take 8 slices of bread. I was only able to dip 4 slices well, and then had one 5th piece that wasn't totally soaked.
