Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. This is especially important for the lavender and lemon zest.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the bread rest before baking. This will allow the gluten to relax and make the bread more tender.
  • Bake the bread until it is golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center of the bread should come out clean.
  • Serve the bread warm. This is when it is at its best.

Conclusion:

Hummingbird Farms' Lavender French Toast Bake is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. The lavender and lemon zest give the bread a unique and flavorful taste, and the cream cheese filling is rich and creamy. This bread is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
