Categories     Breakfast & Brunch

Number Of Ingredients 13

For French Toast
6-8 slices thick bread (day old is best)
3 eggs
3/4 cup milk
2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
1.5 cups chopped fruit (frozen berries, chopped canned peaches, apples, or chopped fresh fruit, any variety)
For Pastry Cream
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1 tbsp flour
1 tbsp corn starch
2 cups milk
1 tsp vanilla

Steps:

  • Whisk the eggs, milk and maple syrup or honey for the french bread. Dip the sliced bread in the egg batter for about 20 seconds per side. Fry in a buttered skilled on each side to golden brown. Set aside until you are ready to assemble the casserole.
  • Make a pastry cream. Heat the milk to warm while you whisk together the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl. Whisk in the flour and corn starch.
  • Slowly whisk in the warm milk. Return the egg yolk-milk mixture to the pan and cook over medium-high heat, whisking continuously. When it thickens, lower the heat and cook for 2 or 3 minutes while continuing to whisk.
  • Return the cooked pastry cream to the bowl in which you mixed the egg yolks and milk. Add the vanilla.

STUFFED FRENCH TOAST WITH FRUIT & CREAM CHEESE (BAKED)



Stuffed French Toast With Fruit & Cream Cheese (Baked) image

Came up with this as a quick and filling breakfast while I was pregnant. The whole family loves it. I've found the leftovers are a little better because the flavors have a chance to blend more. It looks like a lot but it's actually quick & easy to put together. Please follow the steps for mixing ingredients as they're listed... This prevents the "floating" of the dry ingredients and makes for a smooth & blended caramel colored egg mix. Also, I always spread the cream cheese & pie filling over the bread slices rather than pouring it on top so they end up as "sandwiches". We dish them out as sandwiches but have to eat with forks :)
