Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 loaf king's Hawaiian bread
3 eggs
3 tablespoons ricotta cheese
3 tablespoons honey
fresh strawberries
whipped cream

Steps:

Cut wedges from the loaf of Hawaiian Sweet Bread about 3-4 inches thick. Carefully cut a hole in the back of the wedge.
In a bowl, mix together honey with the Ricotta Cheese. Measure a tablespoon of the Ricotta Cheese mixture and carefully stuff into the back of the wedge of bread.
Beat the eggs in a bowl. Then dip the bread on all sides in the eggs. Fry the bread in a skillet on Medium to High heat.
Cook on all sides. When finished, top with fresh strawberries and whipped cream and enjoy!

Tips:

You can use any type of bread, but a thick-sliced bread such as brioche or French bread will give you the best results.
If you want a crispy French toast, cook it over medium-high heat. For a softer French toast, cook it over medium-low heat.
Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the French toast. If the pan is too crowded, the French toast will not cook evenly.
Serve the French toast immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include butter, syrup, powdered sugar, fruit, and whipped cream.
If you have leftover French toast, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply pop it in the toaster or microwave.

Conclusion:

Hawaiian French toast is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. It is perfect for a special occasion or a lazy weekend morning. With its sweet and savory flavors, Hawaiian French toast is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a new breakfast or brunch recipe, give Hawaiian French toast a try.
