Prepare the Bread:

Make the Egg Mixture:

Dip the Bread:
  1. Dip each heart-shaped slice into the egg mixture, coating both sides thoroughly but not soaking too long.
Cook the French Toast:

Notes

Extra Flavor: Add a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of orange extract to the egg mixture.
Make Ahead: Heart shapes can be cut in advance and stored in an airtight container.
Crispy Edges: Use slightly stale bread for the best texture.
Serving Idea: Pair with crispy bacon or sausage for a sweet-and-salty breakfast.
Kid-Friendly: Let kids help with cutting hearts for a fun activity.
