Raspberry-Stuffed French Toast image

This is a rich and decadent breakfast dish. I like to make this on 'holiday mornings', such as Easter. I've used strawberries in place of the raspberries at times.

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 loaf brioche bread or 1 loaf challah (or other egg bread)
4 eggs
2 cups milk
2/3 cup heavy cream
1 pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup granulated sugar
8 ounces very cold cream cheese, in one block
unsalted butter
1 cup fresh raspberries or 1 cup thawed frozen raspberries
confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Cut the bread into 12 slices and put 6 plates in the oven to warm at 200°.
  • Whisk the eggs until foamy; add the milk, cream, salt, vanilla and sugar and whisk to blend; pour into a sheet pan with sides (jelly roll pan); arrange the bread slices in the pan in a single layer and let soak.
  • Meanwhile, using a sharp knife, slice the cream cheese into 12 thin slices.
  • Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat; add about 1 tablespoon of butter and heat until melted and foamy.
  • Working in two batches, if necessary, arrange half the soaked bread slices in the skillet; cook until golden brown, 3-5 minutes; lay 2 slices of cream cheese on each slice of bread, then place 1/6 of the raspberries on top of the cheese; cover each with another slice of soaked bread and press firmly with a spatula.
  • Turn the'sandwich' over and brown on the other side, about 3 minutes more.
  • Transfer to warmed plates, sprinkle lightly with confectioners' sugar and serve.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover raspberries. The French toast was light and fluffy, and the raspberry filling was delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a disaster! The French toast was burnt and the raspberry filling was runny. I don't know what I did wrong, but I won't be trying this recipe again.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The French toast was a bit dry and the raspberry filling was a bit too tart. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I had a hard time getting the custard filling to set properly. I think I'll stick to a simpler French toast recipe next time.
