Means again within the day I shared a recipe for cranberry brie pull aside bread. And after I say again within the day, it was 2016, which appears like eternally in the past (I can’t consider that HBH goes to be 10 years outdated quickly!).

Slicing up bread this fashion isn’t all that widespread, so it appears like a contemporary and thrilling solution to serve a pull aside fashion bread.

And third, it’s completely scrumptious!

I figured the identical technique may very well be utilized to a baked french toast. The second I had the thought, I knew I needed to make it.

The main points

The bread is essential right here. You wish to use a loaf of challah or brioche bread, one thing mushy and eggy. A loaf of sourdough will work too, however the taste adjustments slightly. And I at all times discover a softer, sweeter loaf of bread to be a lot extra scrumptious for French toast.

Use a bread knife to slice the bread into thick slices horizontally, then vertically, to create giant cubes of bread. Now the KEY is to not slice during the bread. You wish to depart a half-inch on the underside of the loaf utterly intact in order that the loaf doesn’t crumble on you.

It’s straightforward to do and fairly enjoyable as nicely.

The custard is a straightforward mixture of eggs, egg yolks, cream, cinnamon, orange liquor, and vanilla. I extremely suggest utilizing the orange liquor because it provides that contact of particular taste.

Pour the batter over the bread and use your fingers to very gently pull the bread aside to permit the batter to sink down into the bread. Then, I take chilly slices of butter and place them in between the cubes of bread. They’ll soften down into the bread because it bakes.

As soon as the french toast has been assembled, you possibly can bake it instantly or place it within the fridge in a single day. That is nice if you wish to have breakfast already prepped and prepared for baking within the morning!

The ultimate factor I love to do is to brush the highest of the bread with the reserved egg whites. You don’t have to do that, nevertheless it provides the loaf a pleasant glisten.

Oh, after which a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar too, which in my guide is a should. The french toast itself shouldn’t be candy, however slightly cinnamon sugar on high goes an extended scrumptious manner.

Serve dolloped with whipped cream and loads of berries, plus actual maple syrup. Pull it aside and have enjoyable consuming.

The French toast is eggy and custard-like. And with slightly maple on high, it should have everybody coming again for extra. It’s fairly darn close to excellent.
