French Toast on White Bread is a classic breakfast dish with origins in European cuisine, particularly France, where it is known as "pain perdu" or "lost bread." The dish is prepared by dipping slices of white bread into a mixture of beaten eggs, milk, and sometimes vanilla or cinnamon, then pan-frying until golden brown. Often topped with syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh fruit, it offers a balance of indulgent sweetness and hearty flavor. Nutritionally, French Toast provides protein from eggs and carbohydrates from the bread. The milk adds calcium and vitamin D, but the dish can be high in sugars and fats depending on preparation and toppings. White bread, while convenient, lacks the fiber and nutrients found in whole-grain varieties. It’s a versatile meal that can be made healthier with fruit-based toppings and whole-grain bread, or more decadent with rich syrups and creams.
