mmmm.... I do the same, I whisk up a few eggs with milk, I use cinnamon. Then soak the bread in it for a small amount of time, like 30 seconds... then I fry it up & serve it with maple syrup... I also cut my own bread to be quite thick.

I've also had it pretty flash before served with grilled tomatos & homemade tomato relish?? It was really yummy, but definately savoury!
