LOST BREAD (FRENCH TOAST)
When I was a little girl, my mama always made this for me for breakfast. I loved it and fixed it for my children who also loved it. It always smelled so good frying that I could hardly wait to get it on my plate.

Steps:
- Preheat nonstick griddle or skillet over medium heat. Beat eggs very well, add sugar and beat again. Add cornstarch in water and beat that in, then add milk and nutmeg. Coat bread thoroughly in egg-milk mixture. Lightly butter hot pan with butter nested in paper towels. Add bread to the pan and cook slowly, 3 or 4 minutes on each side, 2 to 3 slices at a time. Serve hot with your favorite toppings or Three Berry Compote.
- Combine sugar, lemon and water in a small sauce pot. Over moderate heat, dissolve sugar into water. Stir in fruit, coating it in sugar water and bring the fruit and water to a bubble. Reduce heat and simmer 7 or 8 minutes. Remove fruit with a slotted spoon to a serving dish and add maple syrup or honey to the pan. Thicken syrup 5 minutes and pour over fruit. Serve with French toast, pancakes or waffles.
PAIN PERDU: NEW ORLEANS STYLE FRENCH TOAST
Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 F. Generously butter a large baking sheet.
- If desired, remove the crusts from bread slices and discard them or reserve them for another use. Set the bread aside.
- In a small bowl, beat the eggs with salt, sugar, milk, and vanilla. Pour into a flat-bottomed dish large enough to accommodate a few slices of the bread.
- Place the bread slices into the dish to soak up some of the egg mixture, a few at a time. Turn with a spatula and let them soak on the other side, but not too long, or they will be too saturated and difficult to turn. Gently remove the soaked bread slices to the buttered baking sheet and continue with the remaining bread slices. Spoon any remaining egg mixture over the slices.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake the pain perdu for 15 to 20 minutes, turning after the first 10 minutes to brown on both sides.
- Serve immediately with melted butter and your favorite honey or syrup.

PAPA & DO (PAIN PERDU.....LOST BREAD)
As children we were good at messing up words and especially French ones! My grandmother made Papa and Do for us often and the traditon continues with my grand children. Imagine my surprise when I found out after 60 years of life that the real name of this dish is Pain Perdu which means lost bread! Grandma never corrected my pronunciation and now my family calls it Papa & Do, so that is how recipe names get changed. Enjoy!

OLD FASHIONED SOUTHERN CORNBREAD
Got this recipe from the Lodge Cast Iron Cookbook, made in my cast iron skillet. I added the sugar to it; most cooks in the South refuse to put sugar in their cornbread. This uses plain self-rising cornmeal, no flour added.

Steps:
- 1. Place the bacon grease or butter in the bottom of a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. Preheat it at 425°F for 10 minutes.
- 2. Meanwhile, mix up batter: Stir together cornmeal, sugar, egg, and buttermilk to a thin batter.
- 3. When skillet is preheated, pour batter into skillet. It will sizzle and start to form a crust - don't be alarmed. Bake the skillet of cornbread at 425°F about 20-23 minutes, until nicely browned.
- 4. Cut into wedges. Serve immediately with lots of butter.
