Anyways, Alton's recipe is the best I've found. It's a little more complicated, sure, but it's worth the effort.

Oh, and Alton's tip to use an egg bread such as challah is a good one. That's what I've always used for my French toast and I find it makes a delicious difference. My little variation on Alton's recipe: add a dash of vanilla.
