Troubleshooting
If your French toast doesnt have enough flavor.
Dont worry most of the taste comes from what you put on it rather than the toast itself. Try a little more cinnamon, a little more salt, and a dash of nutmeg or even more syrup.

If your French toast is soggy.

Dont soak it in the batter as long and/or try cooking it longer.

If you burn your pancakes.

Don't pour oil directly into the pan, instead try and spread it around evenly. Also only flip the pancakes when bubbles have formed on the surface.

If your bacon is burnt and crinkly

Try baking it instead. Place bacon slices in a single layer on the rack, and bake at 400 for about 20 minutes (depending on bacon thickness and how crispy you like it).

Having trouble separating eggs?

Try using a piece of the egg shell to scoop out the yolk.

Are your pancakes sticking to the pan/skillet?

Make sure to grease the pan/skillet before cooking.
