Stuffed French Toast II image

This is a nice change from ordinary French toast. I make this more than the standard recipe. Although this is my family's favorite version, it is very versatile. You can substitute peanut butter for the cream cheese, use different jams or preserves, different extracts or spices - the options are practically limitless! Serve with maple syrup and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

BAKED STUFFED ORANGE FRENCH TOAST



Baked Stuffed Orange French Toast image

This is one of our favorites... it's great for Christmas morning! It's got all the Christmasy flavors, and it's assembled the night before. You can use any kind of marmalade/jam for the filling. I have used regular and sugar free jams. You can also use light cream cheese, 2% milk in place of the cream, egg beaters in place of the eggs... to lighten it up a bit. Hope it becomes one of your family traditions!

CRUNCHY ORANGE FRENCH TOAST



Crunchy Orange French Toast image

Provided by Katie Lee Biegel

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 orange
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 cups cornflakes, crumbled
3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 loaf challah, cut into 1-inch-thick slices
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup warm maple syrup
Ground cinnamon, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Fit a baking sheet with a wire rack. Heat a griddle pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  • Zest the orange and set aside. Working over a medium bowl, segment the orange; squeeze the juice from the remaining orange membranes.
  • Whisk the eggs, orange zest, milk, cinnamon and orange juice in a baking dish or shallow bowl. Add the cornflakes and bacon to another baking dish and toss together. Dip the bread slices in the egg mixture and let them soak for 1 minute.
  • While the bread is soaking, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter on the griddle pan or skillet.
  • Working with one slice of bread at a time, let the excess egg mixture drip off and then dredge the bread in the cornflake mixture. Add the bread to the griddle, carefully placing as many slices of bread as can comfortably fit without touching too much (it's OK if the edges need to touch a little). You can dredge the bread, transfer it to an unlined baking sheet and hold for 5 minutes while one batch is cooking.
  • Cook on one side, rotating occasionally, until the bottom is golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until it is equally browned, another 2 minutes. Transfer the slices to the prepared baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you complete the next batches. Repeat the cooking process, melting 2 tablespoons of butter for each batch.
  • When all of the French toast is cooked and you are ready to serve, gently stir together the maple syrup and orange segments, making sure not to break up the segments. Spoon the syrup over the French toast and sprinkle with cinnamon. Serve immediately.

STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM STUFFED FRENCH TOAST



Strawberries and Cream Stuffed French Toast image

Provided by Molly Yeh

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

6 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons strawberry jam
Kosher salt
Four 1-inch-thick slices Orange Juice Challah, recipe follows
2 extra-large eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Sweetened condensed milk, for serving
Fresh sliced strawberries, for serving
6 cups (780g) all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/4 cup (50g) sugar
2 1/4 teaspoon (1 packet) instant yeast
Zest of 1 orange
1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup (236ml) warm water
1/2 cup (118ml) orange juice, from about 2 oranges
2/3 cup (132g) flavorless oil, such as canola or vegetable oil
3 large eggs
Poppy seeds, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the cream cheese and beat until smooth. Add the jam and a pinch of salt and continue to beat until thoroughly combined. Using a paring knife, make a slit in each bread slice about 2 to 3 inches long and deep; this pocket will hold the filling. Using an offset spatula, divide and stuff the filling equally into the pockets, making sure it's not a big lump. Set aside.
  • In a shallow dish, add the eggs, milk, vanilla extract and almond extract. Mix with a fork until combined. Dip the challah into the mixture, turning to coat both sides. Let sit and soak while you heat your butter.
  • In a large nonstick skillet, add the butter and heat over medium heat until it begins to foam. Add the challah, allowing any excess egg mixture to drip off, and cook until golden brown and cooked through, flipping once, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  • Place the French toast on a serving dish. Serve with a drizzle of sweetened condensed milk and garnished with strawberries.
  • In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, orange zest and salt and whisk together. In a medium bowl, whisk together the water, orange juice, oil and 2 of the eggs.
  • Add the wet to the flour mixture; stir to combine. Knead, either by hand on a floured surface or with a dough hook on medium speed for 7 to 10 minutes, adding more flour as necessary (but resist any urge to add too much!), until you have a smooth and slightly sticky dough.
  • Transfer the dough to a large oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature until doubled in size, about 2 hours. (Alternatively, chill the dough in the refrigerator overnight, then let stand at room temperature for 1 hour before shaping.)
  • Divide the dough into 4 pieces. Divide each into 3 logs and braid. Place on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spacing them evenly apart. Cover loosely and let rise 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining egg and 1 tablespoon water. Brush the loaves with egg wash and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake until they are golden and have an internal temperature of 190 degrees F; begin checking for doneness at 18 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly and enjoy. (Challah is best eaten within 24 hours. After that it's ok if you toast it or use it for French toast. It also freezes well!)
