Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup milk
3 large eggs, beaten
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
8 thick slices white bread (about 3/4 of a white sandwich or Pullman loaf, cut into 3/4-inch-thick slices)
Suggested servings: Jam or hot pure maple syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 200 degrees F, and place a rack on a sheet pan.
  • Whisk the milk and eggs in a glass pie or casserole dish until evenly combined.
  • Whisk the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add about 1/2 a tablespoon of butter to the skillet, swirling the pan to coat the surface. Dip 2 slices of bread into the egg mixture and immediately lay in the skillet. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar on top and cook until the undersides are brown and crisp, about 4 minutes. Add a nut-sized bit of butter to the skillet, as needed, and flip the toast, cook until golden on the underside, about 3 minutes more.
  • Serve immediately or transfer to the rack in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining bread and batter. Serve with jam or maple syrup.

CHALLAH FRENCH TOAST WITH CINNAMON-SUGAR GLAZE



Challah French Toast With Cinnamon-Sugar Glaze image

Thick slices of soft challah bread make for superior French toast, with a plush, custardy center and golden, crisp edges. This version has extra egg yolks for added richness, and a dash of cardamom for spice. Cinnamon-sugar is sprinkled on top of the challah slices as they cook, caramelizing and glazing them (though you can skip this step, if you want). If you want to work ahead, soak the challah slices in the custard mixture the night before, storing everything in the fridge, then add a few extra minutes onto the cooking time to make sure the centers are cooked through.

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream or half-and-half (or use more milk)
4 large eggs plus 2 large egg yolks
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest (optional)
3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
Pinch of salt
1 loaf challah bread (about 1 pound), cut into 1 1/4-inch slices
4 to 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more as needed
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Maple syrup
Cherry or other jam
Whipped mascarpone or crème fraîche
Berries
Sliced bananas
Chopped pineapple chunks
Mini chocolate chips

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together milk, cream, eggs and egg yolks, vanilla, lemon zest (if using), 1/2 teaspoon cardamom and salt.
  • Arrange challah slices in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Pour custard on top, and let sit at room temperature, uncovered, for 30 minutes, so the bread can absorb the custard, carefully flipping bread slices halfway through.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, cinnamon and remaining 1/4 teaspoon cardamom. Set aside.
  • Heat a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium, then add 2 tablespoons butter and let it melt. Place 2 to 3 pieces soaked challah in skillet, making sure to not crowd the pan. Cook until golden on bottom, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle a little of the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top of each slice, then flip and cook until bottom is glazed and browned, another 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to serving plates, glazed-side up. Repeat with remaining butter, challah and cinnamon sugar. Serve warm, with your choice of toppings.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 -10 slices white bread
4 eggs, large
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons brown sugar, lightly packed
1 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg, ground
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 tablespoons cooking spray
1/2 cup maple syrup (real, not imitation)
4 -5 tablespoons butter, salted (optional ( 1/2 tbs. butter per slice)

Steps:

  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk eggs. Then whisk in milk. Add brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla; whisk until fully incorporated.
  • Bring a large skillet or griddle to medium heat and lightly spray with cooking spray.
  • Dredge each slice of bread in the custard mixture, being careful not to oversaturate the bread.
  • Cook for 3-5 minutes on each side or until lightly browned.
  • Serve hot with butter and real maple syrup.

Tips:

  • Use a thick, sturdy bread for your French toast, such as brioche or challah. This will help the bread hold up to the custard and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Make sure your custard is well-seasoned. Use a combination of spices, such as cinnamon, sugar, nutmeg, and vanilla extract, to create a flavorful French toast.
  • Cook your French toast over medium heat. This will help the bread cook evenly and prevent it from burning.
  • Serve your French toast immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon sugar French toast is a classic breakfast dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser.
