FAQ
1. Can I use stale bread for this recipe?
Yes! Stale bread works wonderfully as it absorbs the egg mixture better, resulting in a firmer texture.
2. Can I make this recipe gluten-free?
Absolutely. Use gluten-free bread and ensure any seasonings or cheese used are also gluten-free.
3. What oil is best for frying?
Neutral oils like vegetable, canola, or sunflower oil are ideal. Avoid oils with strong flavors like olive oil.
4. Can I bake these instead of frying?
Yes, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C), place the dipped bread slices on a baking sheet, and bake for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through.
