French toast has always been a weekend breakfast for me – until I had the great idea of making it ahead of time and then reheating it in the sandwich press at work!  Possible toppings are numerous, so be creative.  Some suggestions can be found at the bottom of the recipe.  Please feel free to add your favourites in the comments section.
