Yield Makes 3 or 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 (3/4-inch-thick) slices from an unsliced loaf of firm white sandwich bread or challah
1 cup heavy cream
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
About 4 cups vegetable oil for frying
Confectioners sugar for dusting
Accompaniment: warm maple syrup or honey
Special Equipment
a deep-fat thermometer

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Cut off and discard crusts from bread, then diagonally halve slices. Arrange in 1 layer in a baking pan.
  • Whisk together cream, eggs, and salt, then pour over bread. Soak bread, turning once, until most of liquid is absorbed but bread is not falling apart, about 2 minutes.
  • Carefully transfer soaked bread with a slotted spatula to a tray.
  • Heat 1/2 inch oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until thermometer registers 325°F.
  • Fry bread, 3 pieces at a time, turning over once, until golden brown and crisp, about 2 minutes. (Return oil to 325°F between batches.) Transfer toast to paper towels to drain briefly, then arrange in 1 layer on a baking sheet.
  • Once all bread is fried, bake toast in middle of oven until puffed, about 4 minutes. Serve dusted with confectioners sugar.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and the French toast always turns out perfect. The green chiles add a nice kick, and the sour cream and salsa are the perfect toppings. I would definitely recommend this recipe to anyone looking for a new way

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning. Other than that, it was a good dish. The French toast was cooked perfectly and the toppings were tasty.

I'm not a big fan of green chiles, so I omitted them from this recipe. The French toast still turned out great! It was light and fluffy, and the toppings were delicious. I would definitely make this recipe again, even without the green chiles.
