There is not a restaurant close to my home (or anyhere that I know of)that could serve up french toast as good as this. My family felt like we had just stepped into a quaint little cafe with Rachel Ray. A few changes that I made to the recipe were to...omit the oil, sprinkle nutmeg in the egg mixture too, use Sara Lee (thick sliced) honey wheat bread and dip each bite into some warm maple syrup. Also, because all I had were the whole almonds...I chopped them up in a food processor and then used a collander to shake off the almonds that just chopped down to powder. I wondered if I had heated the almonds first and then chopped them, if they would have chopped better??? I might try that next time.
