This recIipe would have been pretty good WITHOUT all that sugar. I used half of the brown sugar and it still was way too sweet. The french toast, itself was good, but filling too sweet. Probably won't make again.

i read some of the reviews before i made the recipe the first time and i must say they were dead on! i cut the sugar to 3/4 cup and it was still quite sweet. also for the second go round i used 1cup of pancake mix to help make more of a crust and that worked great too! but the best thing i did was substitute strawberries for bananas- the acidity of the berries helps balance out the richness of the dish! needless to say my friends and family are still asking when im going to make it again. its the perfect wow item for brunch!!!
ps they are the best right off the grill so i cooked them all then put them in the oven at 250 to stay nice and warm till it was time to eat!!!

I probably won't end up making this because I can't figure out what he's talking about in his instructions for slicing the bread. I read it three times and can't envision how he is slicing it.

I loved this recipe. I did make modifications though. As suggested by some, I used only 8 eggs, multigrain pancake mix, and 1/4 cup sugar. I used only 3 bananas and 3/4 cups brown sugar. There was plenty brown sugar left in the bowl, I could have used less. I used rice crispies for the cereal and didn't add the nuts. Also, I used challah for the bread and simply cut a thickness of 1 inch slice in half. This worked. I also had plenty of the egg mixture left over. My dad and I loved the recipe, while my mom thought it was too sweet--for me it was perfectly sweetened. One last note: It made more than the recipe says.

This is super sweet, doesn't even need syrup. Not too difficult to make and worth the effort. My family enjoyed it and I'm sure you can easily adapt it to your own tastes and try it another way. I'd make it again.

I made this the way it was written and it was wonderful, and then I tried to see how it would taste changing it around to be healther. I used a heart healthy pancake mix, 1/4 cup sugar, 8 eggs, and 1 cup brown sugar. I also used a whole wheat bread (not presliced kind, total brand flakes, and a LOT less butter.

For having so many substitutions it was great!

This was amazing. The whole family loved it though we did have a lot extra.
I only used 8 eggs instead of 12 and 1 cup brown sugar and it turned out great. This is definatly a family favorite!!!!!!!

I made this recipe a few months ago for my boyfriend, and he and I haven't stopped talking about it since! I cut the recipe in half and it still made plenty for the two of us to have leftovers. This is definitely a favorite and keeper!
