French toast, also known in the UK as eggy bread, is a dish made a sliced bread soaked in beaten eggs and then pan-fried in oil or butter. French toast can be served either as a sweet or savoury dish, with syrups, jam, honey, eggs or bacon as options for traditional accompaniments. If it is served as a sweet dish, it is often sweetened with milk, sugar, vanilla or cinnamon before frying.
