Which Breakfast Food Is Best? | Pancakes vs. Waffles vs. French Toast | NYT Cooking

[@roentgen822]

French toast is the alpha and you’re deluding yourself if you think otherwise 😅

[@Lucaribrix]

I stand by this

[@majora919]

As long as they don't fuck it up

[@a1337a]

alpha french toast confirmed

[@crazybear09]

Of that list: French Toast. Of general breakfast food: Bagels with lox. No question.

[@ZaxorVonSkyler]

Specifically sesame bagel with lox!

[@TheKos2Kos]

@@ZaxorVonSkyler sesame got no flavor. Sorry not sorry. Onion or everything bagel

[@ZaxorVonSkyler]

@@TheKos2Kos It tastes nutty toasty and crunchy, go get your tastebuds fixed dude. Tahni has a taste as well for instance.

[@carajean834]

[@micheallancaster8852]

I saw pancakes at the bottom, and got angry, then clicked show more, and I approve of the list now.

[@bluedrummajor2876]

More often than not, I'm gonna want waffles. Every now and then, I'll want pancakes especially if they're unusual such as buckwheat, cornmean, oat, or whole wheat. The same with French Toast-- just once in a while and especially if it's an unusual bread.

[@robinwsc]

"want something softer in morning" "i love the crisp on the pancakes" show waffles the respect!!!

[@terryharvey3659]

French toast #1 always!! Then waffles, pancakes. Just had French toast with berries and cream yesterday!😋

[@jzthompson9598]

I ran a real bed and breakfast for 7 years, and without a doubt, my best recipe was for French toast made with Portuguese sweet bread, which is lighter and airer than challah, and needs to be frozen to slice and soak, and can only be soaked for about 2-3 minutes. The batter is milk, eggs, and dark rum, and served with real maple syrup. It puffs up like a souffle. Collapses, too. lol Leftovers make fantastic sandwiches. Party on!

[@benrogers2302]

Of course French Toast won; it’s a Melissa Clark recipe and Melissa Clark can’t miss!

Waffles forever. But agree with others everything bagel ftw

[@AndyS52]

and the winner is - Scrambled Eggs

[@nicholashilton2514]

Scott is so cute omg 😩

[@rebeccab9204]

I make all three: I put chopped chocolate in my pancakes; I make pecan waffles; and use brioche bread for French toast. Even with the zhuzhing of the pancakes and waffles, the winner is still French toast!

[@faredsharudden]

I am missing Alison Roman in NYT Cooking. Don’t get me wrong, i love when Claire and all the other cooks come over but the reason why i started to become obsessed with NYT Cooking was because of Alison. Please bring back Alison and let her cook everything! I miss her and i love her!

[@chefdavidrivoli]

Pancakes for life my guy. Especially with a side of Eggs, Bacon, Grits, Sausage.

[@TextileHouse]

Waffles Pancakes French Toast.

[@ZaxorVonSkyler]

When I make French Toast I always toast the bread in the toaster first and add a bit of flour to the batter until it's the consistency of crepe batter. This way I never have soggy French toast!

[@milhouse14]

Shouldn't they be toasted in the toaster AFTER frying them in the pan? That's how to make them crispy.

[@ZaxorVonSkyler]

@@milhouse14 I mean you can do both, but the first toast helps the bread soak up liquid better.

[@alanpalacios7677]

French toast forever! I personally like using really crusty rustic italian loaves and using that, it gives it more texture than challah. Another thing is I also use lavender sugar when making the soaking mixture to give it those nice floral notes

[@lexijs]

this is elite

[@SivanIlan]

At home: pancakes. At a restaurant: French toast alllll the way ❤️

[@priscillabrowne2176]

I love all three. I do not think I could choose a favorite. I will say I am always surprised that no one makes french toast they way I was raised to eat and now make it. My family always deep fried our french toast. YUM! That is not healthy, but as a treat every once in a while...fantastic and delicious!

[@CookingwithStacy]

I am definitely an oatmeal or yoghurt breakfast lover, but i would definitely take pancake first, waffle second and pass on the french toast, 🤗

[@DSherman50]

That french toast you made is making a statement as in it’s your everything. I’d love to make it but don’t know where to find Challah bread in Orange County, CA.

French toast is delicious but put strawberries on a crispy waffle Oooooo the best. Pancakes with cinnamon in the batter is good but they sit to heavy in my stomach.

[@LordFinn]

I'm French and so proud that our little boy won. In France, french toast is called "lost bread" because we mostly use hard bread (the bread that have been lost) to make it. A quick, easy and delicious way to transform what could have been thrown in the trash. I have a little lexical question, do you call everything "bread" in the US ? Because for what i can see this is not bread, this is brioche. Is brioche considered as a type of bread ? Good video anyway, thx.

[@hypnosesgodchild]

yea brioche is considered bread idk but i think in most parts of the world, any yeasted dough thats made mostly with flour that creates this rly fluffy dough is called bread so.... like sandwich bread is bread, brioche is bread, challah is bread, baguette is bread, ciabatta is bread, etc for croissants most ppl will consider it a pastry or a cross between a bread and a pastry i mean brioche is just an eggy buttery sweet bread no? why is it not considered a bread in france? is it considered a cake instead or is it just its own thing? (just curious hehe) ok but one thing i dont get (im not american) is the fact that banana bread is called BREAD. its a cake. its a damn cake u cant tell me otherwise. its literally a dessert

[@LordFinn]

@@hypnosesgodchild Thanks for the response and explanations. The brioche in France is in the category of "viennoiseries", like croissants. Viennoiseries are products whose recipes are similar to that of bread or puff pastry, but fattier and sweeter, that brings them closer to pastry (eggs, butter, milk, cream , sugar…) We usually eat them at breakfast or at 4pm.

[@hypnosesgodchild]

@@LordFinn ohh so u guys have a more specific term for it that actually makes more sense bread is just a rly broad term i guess i think brioche is classified as bread in english and not "a cross between pastry/bread" (eg. croissants) is bc its not crunchy/flaky. like yes it is rly buttery and sweet, but the texture is closer to bread, so its just considered a sweet bread

[@matt00794]

I always say waffles favorite but I do love French toast. Pancakes are pretty much always last place but adding things to them is always fun

[@manguian8984]

I want all three!!!

[@GregCurtin45]

I only make French Toast with eggnog (buy it and freeze it) Must always have cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamon in it. Once you master waffles... you can make them chocolate, eggnog flavoured, or anything you desire -- try adding your sourdough discard ;) As for pancakes (I can't stand them) but I did learn a cool way to make them on a griddle: Cinnamon bun pancakes >>> Make them in long, very thin strips (not much thicker than a crepe); sprinkle a mix of crushed pecans, cinnamon/cardamon, & brown sugar down the centre before your first flip. Barely cook them after the flip. Roll them up towards you and stand vertically on the plate. Squeeze bottle of cinnamon bun icing and your fav syrup - kids and adults love them.

[@littlepinons]

Make your own egg nog with a cup of alchohol per cup of cream and it keeps for a month or 2 in the frig. I did and my french toast has never been better. Now I am never without in the off eggnog season.

[@warrenstevenscott2658]

1. Egg-in-a-hole 2. French toast 3. Pancakes 4. Waffles

[@justalittleguy733]

french toast definitely!!!

[@majoroldladyakamom6948]

Ala carte: pancakes and waffles have very little protein and can cause sugar spikes in the blood, depending upon the ingredient base. French toast, made with whole-grain bread, with PB and some fresh/frozen fruit has a higher protein valuation, medically speaking.

[@ronnnnie]

I think it highly depends on where you from and what you grew up eating. For me, always 1. waffles 2. french toast (Hong Kong style is even better) 3. pancakes

[@tosht2515]

1 blueberry pancakes, 2 French toast, 3 pecan waffles I also like French toast made in a waffle iron.

[@Cadwaladr]

Probably the same ranking for me. I don't normally have challah or brioche or anything that fancy in the house, but sometimes I get some French bread that my mom makes, and that stuff makes excellent French toast. As for pancakes, I tried making them with yeast instead of baking powder one time, and I really don't like the baking soda/powder ones anymore. They just taste metallic and unnatural, probably because of the sodium. NaHCO3 turns into Na2CO3, which is pretty caustic. I use Na2CO3 to develop film, I don't want to eat it. As for waffles, they're fine, but usually too much trouble to make.

[@greasler6135]

Try folding beaten egg whites into your pancake batter instead of using yeast or baking powder/soda, way more fluffy

[@garrisonbrown1170]

The crunch sound on that pancake is peak ASMR content.

Well - Always French Toast is #1 if it's a sweet breakfast you're after : 1) French Toast; 2) Pancakes; 3) Waffles - but French Toast with butter & just a dusting of powdered sugar & the same with pancakes (syrup is too much sweet) & a little butter & jam on the waffle - or an egg or parm/cheese.
