LORILYN'S DEEP FRIED STUFFED FRENCH TOAST
A light & fluffy coating on thick slices of Texas Toast, filled with a lightly sweetened cream cheese with a hint of almond flavoring. This is a recipe I created this morning. DH & I were watching the Food Network last night & saw mention of a restaurant that serves deep fried french toast but no recipe or hints on how it was made. It sounded interesting enough to play around with so I browsed my kitchen & made a few notes on what to try this morning. I had Texas Toast & some cream cheese on hand & it occurred to me that I could make a filling to stuff the extra thick slices of bread with. This is the final result. We loved it & I hope you enjoy it too! *Note - I used a deep fryer for this but you could easily do it in a deep sided pan on the stove or a deep sided griddle. We tried these with my blueberry/raspberry syrup from Recipe #22066, with lazyme's Recipe #330075, store-bought orange marmalade and maple syrup.

Steps:
- In stand up mixer or in small bowl, combine cream cheese, almond extract and powdered sugar until fluffy.
- Fit a cake decorating bag with a large tip (star or round) and fill with cream cheese mixture. Set aside.
- Using a serrated bread knife, slice each piece of Texas Toast into half on the diagonal.
- Along the newly cut diagonal edge, use the tip of the knife to gently make a one inch slice into the center of the bread, making sure the slice runs parallel to the top and bottom of the bread.
- Insert the decorator tip into the opening & squeeze out about a teaspoon or so of filling. With a thumb & finger, gently pinch the opening to close it back up & cover the filling. (This could also be done with a ziplock baggie with a corner cut off, although not quite as easily.).
- In mixer or another medium bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder and salt.
- Beat in milk and eggs until batter is smooth. Pour into deep wide bowl or into a pie plate, for dipping.
- Pre-heat deep fryer or griddle (about 350°) and when ready dip filled slices of bread into batter, turn once and place into fryer basket. (Mine will hold two slices at a time.)
- Fry 2 minutes or until lightly browned & crispy looking then turn each slice over with a pair of tongs and fry the other side for 2 minutes or until done.
- Remove with tongs to paper towel lined plate to drain. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.
- Repeat with the rest of the slices.
- Serve immediately (careful - filling is hot) with your choice of syrups, jams or jellies.

Steps:
- Beat the eggs, sugar, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Whisk in the milk, followed by the flour; whisk until smooth.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Soak the bread slices in the egg mixture until the egg has penetrated through to the center of the bread. Wipe off the excess egg. Cook in the deep-fryer several pieces at a time to avoid overcrowding. Cook until golden brown on both sides and no longer soggy in the center, about 4 minutes. Drain the French toast on a paper towel-lined plate before serving.

Tips:
- Choose the right bread: Stale bread is best for deep-frying, as it will hold its shape better than fresh bread. French bread, sourdough, and Italian bread are all good choices.
- Cut the bread into thick slices: 1-inch thick slices are ideal for deep-frying. Thinner slices will cook too quickly and become crispy on the outside and raw on the inside.
- Season the bread: Before frying, sprinkle the bread slices with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. This will help to enhance the flavor of the toast.
- Use a neutral-flavored oil: Vegetable oil, canola oil, and grapeseed oil are all good choices for deep-frying toast. Avoid using olive oil, as it has a strong flavor that can overpower the taste of the bread.
- Fry the toast in small batches: Do not overcrowd the fryer, as this will cause the oil temperature to drop and the toast will not cook evenly. Fry the toast in batches of 3 or 4 slices at a time.
- Cook the toast until it is golden brown: The toast should be cooked until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside. This will take about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Drain the toast on paper towels: After frying, the toast should be drained on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
Conclusion:
Deep-fried toast is a delicious and versatile snack or side dish. It can be served with a variety of toppings, including butter, jam, honey, Nutella, and cheese. It can also be used to make sandwiches, croutons, and bread pudding. With a few simple tips, you can easily make perfect deep-fried toast at home.
