When presented, this looks almost too good to eat! I used raspberries in the Test Kitchen, and my taste buds were very happy. The nut/coconut coating gives you a surprise crunch. Adding a dollop of whipped cream tops this wonderfully!

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 loaf of thick white bread (Texas Toast works well)
1 lb strawberries or raspberries
1 pt heavy whipping cream
1 pkg cream cheese, softened
2 Tbsp sugar, divided
1/3 c sweetened flaked coconut
1/3 c macadamia nuts, finely chopped
4 egg whites (or just 2 whole lg. eggs)
1/3 c milk
red food coloring drops

Steps:

  • 1. Mash berries and add 1 tbsp of sugar. Set aside.
  • 2. In pie plate mix egg and milk.
  • 3. In different pie plate mix nuts and coconut.
  • 4. Dip each slice of bread first in egg mixture, then in nut mixture and place in greased, hot skillet. Cook for a few minutes on each side until golden brown. Sometimes with the thick bread, I even stand them on their sides to brown for a bit.
  • 5. Whip pint of cream on high until stiff, adding 1 tbsp of sugar towards the end of whipping. Set aside 1/2 of the whipped cream in bowl. In remaining 1/2 of whipped cream, if desired, add red food coloring, mix and also set this whipped cream in in fridge until all the french toast is cooked. In separate bowl, whip cream cheese until smooth and airy. Fold into white 1/2 of whipped cream.
  • 6. Layer 1 slice of cooked french toast, cream cheese mixture, some of the smashed berries, another slice of the toast, and then a dollop of the pink whipped cream and a little more berries. Yum!

Tips:

  • Use fresh macadamia nuts for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have macadamia nuts, you can substitute other nuts, such as almonds or walnuts.
  • To make the macadamia crust, simply crush the nuts in a food processor until they are finely ground.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can also crush the nuts by hand using a rolling pin.
  • Be sure to coat the French toast slices evenly in the macadamia crust before cooking.
  • Cook the French toast over medium heat so that it doesn't burn.
  • Serve the French toast with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or fruit.

Conclusion:

Macadamia French toast is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. It's perfect for special occasions or everyday meals. The macadamia crust adds a delicious nutty flavor and crunch to the French toast. If you're looking for a new way to enjoy French toast, give this recipe a try!
