What do you do with bread that is a bit dry or crusts that your kids won't eat. You make French Toast in a Bowl!
First grease a microwave safe bowl with a finger full of butter. Crack in 1 egg and add milk in the quantity of about 1/2 the volume of the egg. Just eyeball it. Whip the egg and the milk together with a fork. Crumble in about one slice of bread or the equivalent amount in rolls, hamburger buns or odd pieces. Mix in the bread with a fork so that it is all uniformly moist. If you have a bit to much liquid in your bowl and don't want to add more bread push the mixture toward the sides of the bowl so there is a doughnut hole in the middle. It will fill in with cooked egg, otherwise it will just be soggy bread. Microwave the mixture in the bowl for 1 minute and 25 seconds. This is approximate, you can change it up or down by a couple of seconds. Take the bowl out of the microwave, slice the results right in the bowl, add butter and syrup and eat up! It is so easy a kid could do it.
For those of you who have sworn off microwaves throw the same mixture into a fry pan with some butter and cook until firm. Flip the pile over and cook the other side. It will still taste the same but won't be as convenient. You could try baking the mixture. I haven't tried this but it should work.
