   • In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until well blended.

2. Soak the Bread:

   • Dip each slice of egg bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for about 3 minutes or until thoroughly moistened. Ensure both sides are coated evenly.

3. Coat with Crumbs (Optional Step):

   • If desired, coat both sides of the moistened bread slices with breadcrumbs for added texture. Press gently to adhere the crumbs.

4. Cooking:

   • Heat a large heavy pan or skillet over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter or margarine and let it melt and coat the pan.
   • Place the soaked bread slices in the pan and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Add more butter or margarine to the pan as needed to prevent sticking.

5. Serve:

   • Once both sides are nicely browned and the bread is cooked through, transfer the French toast slices to a serving plate.

6. Optional Waffle Iron Method:

   • For a fun variation, you can also cook the soaked bread slices in a preheated waffle iron. This will give your French toast a different texture and appearance, perfect for a change in your morning routine.

7. Enjoy:

   • Serve warm with maple syrup, fresh berries, powdered sugar, or any toppings of your choice. French toast pairs wonderfully with a hot cup of coffee or tea for a delightful breakfast treat!
