RAISIN BREAD FRENCH TOAST



Raisin Bread French Toast image

We love this easy Raisin Bread French Toast for breakfast or brunch! It's also a great recipe if you are looking for what to do with raisin bread.

Provided by The Worktop

Categories     Breakfast     Brunch

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon quality vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon ((optional))
4-6 slices raisin bread ((I use six slices because the loaf I buy is small sized))
butter (- for cooking)
maple syrup
a dollop whipped cream
a dash ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, vanilla and cinnamon. Transfer the egg mixture to a wide bowl (like a pasta bowl), so you can dip the bread slices.
  • Preheat a nonstick skillet on medium to medium-high heat. TIP: To make French toast quick, a square skillet is very handy because it can make 4 slices at once, and the low edges of the pan make it easy to flip.
  • Drop a knob of butter on the hot skillet. Working one slice at a time, dip each slice for about 20 seconds, and flip and allow to soak for another 10 seconds.
  • Place the egg dipped bread on the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes, until the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook an additional 2 minutes on the other side, until the French toast feels slightly firm to the touch and the bottom is golden brown. Adjust the heat as necessary so the French toast gets cooked through before the outsides burn.
  • Serve immediately with maple syrup, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and a dollop of whipped cream.

Cinnamon Raisin French Toast image

Any bread is lovely in this buttermilk batter.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 large eggs
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of ground nutmeg
Pinch of salt
6 one-inch-thick slices cinnamon-raisin bread, preferably day-old
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Pure maple syrup, (optional)

Steps:

  • Whisk together eggs, buttermilk, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Place bread in a shallow baking dish large enough to hold the bread slices in a single layer. Pour egg mixture over bread; soak 10 minutes. Turn slices over; soak 10 minutes more or until soaked through.
  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Place a wire rack on a baking sheet; set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Wipe out skillet; repeat with remaining butter, oil, and bread. Keep in oven until ready to serve. Serve warm with maple syrup, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use thick slices of raisin bread for a heartier casserole.
  • If you don't have ground cinnamon, you can use 1 teaspoon of cinnamon sugar instead.
  • For a richer flavor, use half-and-half or milk instead of water.
  • To make the casserole ahead of time, assemble it the night before and refrigerate it overnight. Bake it in the morning for a quick and easy breakfast.
