Provided by Christin Mahrlig

Categories     Breakfast     Brunch

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 ounces cream cheese, (softened)
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
8 slices white bread, (preferably stale)
8 slices bacon, (cooked)
4 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 teaspoons butter
vegetable oil

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix cream cheese and brown sugar. Spread one side of each slice of bread with cream cheese mxiture
  • Sandwich 2 slices of bacon between 2 pieces of bread with the cream cheese side facing in. Repeat for remaining slices of bread to make a total of four.
  • In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and vanilla extract.
  • Dip each French toast "sandwich" in egg mixture. Try to only get the egg mixture on the exterior of each piece of bread and not let it soak through to the middle where the bacon is or it will turn out soggy, plus any egg that gets in the middle won't really cook.
  • Heat a large nonstick pan or griddle over medium heat. Add butter and a little vegetable oil. Cook each stuffed French toast until golden brown on bottom and then flip over. Add more butter and oil to pan if necessary. Cook until second side is golden brown.
  • Cut each piece in half and serve with maple syrup.

Categories     dessert

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 stick sweet, unsalted butter
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
2 bananas, sliced
1/4 cup banana liqueur (optional)
1 pint real Vermont maple syrup
2 cups half-and-half
2 tablespoons cinnamon
2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
4 whole eggs (not beaten)
1/2 cup sugar
Pinch salt
8 pieces challah bread
1/4 wheel double cream brie cheese, cut into 8 thin pieces

Steps:

  • In a medium-hot pan, melt 2 ounces of butter. After butter melts, but before starting to brown, add walnuts. Reduce heat to medium and lightly cook walnuts until you begin to smell aroma of toasted nuts. Add bananas to walnuts. Cook approximately 3 to 5 minutes or until bananas begin to caramelize. Remove pan from heat (very important, do not add liqueur to pan while still on burner), add banana liqueur and return to heat. If pan is hot enough, let most of the liquid evaporate until removing from heat. Add maple syrup and set aside in serving container. Combine half-and-half, cinnamon, vanilla, eggs, sugar, pinch of salt in shallow bowl. Stir vigorously to combine cinnamon with mixture. Dip challah bread into egg mixture, make sure that bread soaks up liquid.
  • Heat pan to medium. Melt tablespoon of butter. After butter has melted and before it begins to brown, add 2 slices to pan. Gently lay bread into butter. After approximately 30 to 45 seconds, turn over 1 slice, place brie on cooked side of challah. Place other piece of challah bread on top of brie (uncooked side still facing up). Add more butter if necessary. Cook another minute, turn over, cook 1 more minute. Continue with the remaining bread and cheese in the same manner.
  • Place on a plate, spoon your syrup mixture on top and enjoy.

Tips:

  • Use thick-cut bacon for a more substantial texture.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy, but not too hard.
  • Use a good quality bread for the French toast casserole. A hearty bread, such as challah or brioche, will hold up well in the casserole.
  • Make sure the eggs and milk mixture is well-seasoned with salt and pepper.
  • Don't be afraid to add other ingredients to the casserole, such as cheese, vegetables, or sausage.
  • Bake the casserole until it is golden brown and bubbly.
  • Serve the casserole immediately, topped with maple syrup or powdered sugar.
