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.
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!

- In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, syrup, and butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly for 1 minute.

- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, and salt. Pour the mixture over the bread slices. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

LOUISIANA STYLE FRENCH TOAST (OR PAIN PERDU)
I learned how to make this rich, gooey, caramel-ly version of French Toast when I lived in Louisiana. It is very sweet - feel free to decrease the amount of sugar if you wish. There is no milk in this version. If you don't have a good nonstick pan, you may need to grease your pan with some oil or butter rather than the nonstick spray, as the sugar caramelizes and can be a little messy to clean.

Steps:
- Beat together the eggs,sugar,and vanilla extract.
- Dip each slice of bread into the batter to coat both sides.
- Drain off excess batter and cook on a hot griddle that has been first sprayed with nonstick butter flavor spray (or brushed with oil).
- Brown well on both sides,but don't let burn.
- Dust with powdered sugar and serve with warm maple syrup on the side.
- Note: You may use any kind of bread you prefer-however,the softer the bread you use, the soggier it will be (I prefer to use day old challah bread or Italian bread slices).
- The number of servings will also vary depending upon the size of your bread slices- I usually serve 2-3 slices per person.

PAIN PERDU ROANOKE (LOST BREAD)
This lost bread (french toast) recipe has an interesting twist; it's made with cornbread. Although it's written with direction for using a box of corn muffin mix, feel free to substitue your own homemade cornbread (see the note at the bottom of the recipe). From the McCormick Cookbook. (Time includes making the cornbread, but not the cooling time.)

Steps:
- TO PREPARE THE CORNBREAD:.
- Preheat oven to 400; Spray an 8x4x3" loaf pan with nonstick spray.
- In a bowl, add the corn muffin mix, 1 egg, 1/4 cup milk, savory (or thyme) and cayenne.
- Mix according to package directions, then gently fold in the corn.
- Pour into the baking pan and bake for 30 minutes.
- Cool.
- PAIN PERDUE:.
- Slice the loaf of cornbread into 6 even slices, then cut each slice in half diagonally, so you have 12 triangles.
- In a bowl, beat the eggs.
- Add the milk, sugar, nutmeg and vanilla and mix well.
- Pour enough oil into a skillet (or electric skillet) to about 2"; heat to 350.
- Soak the triangles of cornbread in the egg mixture, carefully removing the pieces to the hot oil.
- Fry for 4 to 5 minutes, until golden brown, turning once.
- Remove the pieces from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on absorbent paper.
- Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar and serve with maple syrup.
- NOTES: You can substitute your own favorite homemade cornbread recipe for the corn muffin mix (you'll need a recipe that would normally fit an 8x8" pan).
- Just omit the corn muffin mix, the 1/4 cup milk and the 1 egg, prepare your own recipe, then add the corn and cayenne as directed, and proceed with the recipe from that point.
