To make French toast, you need the right equipment to get the job done. The better these tools are, the easier it will be to create your morning meal masterpiece. Below we have listed all the things you will need for each stage of the recipe. This kit is available at any leading retail store at an affordable price. You may even want to spend more to get some high-quality equipment, since many of them can be used for other uses within your kitchen area.

measuring cups

Before you can start, you’ll need a measuring cup to make sure you measure your ingredients correctly. Many seasoned home cooks have adequate expertise in eye-measuring their portions, but for most of us ‘regular folks’ we need the help of measuring cups. For French toast you don’t need anything complicated, just something that can measure thirds and quarter cups.

mixing container

You will need something to combine all your eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and other ingredients to top your French toast. You can use a standard mixing bowl, however it is much easier to do if you have a separate mixing bowl. This is particularly important when you need to serve a lot of people.

Mixer

Once you’ve combined your components inside the mixing bowl, you need something to help mix everything together. A regular spatula will do the job, but it can also leave you with a sore and stiff arm. We recommend using an egg beater or better yet an electric hand mixer.

frying pan

Now that all the components are mixed, it’s time to soak the bread and cook it. While a standard skillet will do, to get the best, most even browned finish on your French toast, you’ll want a high-quality skillet. The thicker the pan, the better.

Turner

You need to prepare both sides of your bread and something tells me that turning it by hand isn’t the best idea. That’s where a turner comes in. All turners are simply the same, but if you want one that will last a lifetime, you’ll want to spend a little more for a high-quality turner.

serving items

Now that your morning meal is complete, you need a presentation that does it justice. Dishes and cutlery are a must. Also, it helps to get a tray to put them on. Ultimately, you could grace the presentation along with things like a fruit bowl, placemat, flowers, and more. Get creative here and really do what needs to be done to make the morning special.
