Pecan Crusted French Toast

As a little girl I wasn't a very big french toast fan, but as I got older that all changed. Now french toast is one of my favorite breakfast items causing me to put my own twist on a classic dish. This was achieved by making regular cinnamon french toast, but then dipping it in pecans to give it a crunch. This dish was delectable and melted in your mouth while eating it. The softness of the challah and after soaking in the egg mixture it becomes so soft and a perfect way to start off the day. I hope you enjoy my twist on french toast! (this recipe feeds 3-4 people)

Ingredients:
4 large eggs
1/3 cup heavy cream or half and half
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 slices of challah
1 1/2 cups pecans

First slice the challah into 6 slices.

Then in a bowl mix the eggs, heavy cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together until combined.

On a griddle or a non stick pan put a little oil so that french toast does't stick. Next cook the french toast in the pan for about 2 minutes per side or until the pecans are cooked and the french toast is golden brown,

Finally serve with some maple syrup and maybe some whipped cream if desired, and enjoy!
