VALENTINE'S DAY TOAST

Steps:

• First, you mix up the amount of sugar and cinnamon that you need for each slice of bread (2 Tbs. of sugar is a but more than is needed, but it is the best mixture as you will see). Place your slices of bread in the toaster. You may toast it in anyway that you want to but if you toast the bread too much, the quality by others may not be so well accepted.
• After you toast the bread to your liking, place the toast on a surface that you can cut it on (if you want to cut it). If you want to cut it into a heart shape, do so, though you don't have to.
• Take the butter and spread it over the toast. After you have enough on, sprinkle as much of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the toast as you want to. Be aware that too much makes it unappetizing and too little only teases the tongue.

VALENTINE'S DAY FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Beat eggs, milk, nutmeg, and cinnamon together with a fork in a bowl until somewhat smooth.
• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
• Dip a bread slice into egg mixture to evenly and generously coat each side and put into the hot skillet; cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with each bread slice.
• Cut each slice in half on a diagonal and arrange onto 2 plates. Arrange banana and strawberry slices on the plates around the French toast. Drizzle maple syrup over the French toast; dust with confectioners' sugar.

CINNAMON SWIRL BREAD AND VALENTINE BRUNCH FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• ~~~*~~~THE BREAD~~~*~~~
• for bread.. mix dry ingredients, then pour into water and mix until moistened, dump into greased container and close lid for 12 hours on counter.
• dump dough onto floured surface and fold edges into middle several times. If you're going to add raisins you can do that now by folding them into the bread. turn over and form ball. sprinkle with flour and cover with plastic wrap for 2 1/2 hours on counter.
• put dutch oven or covered casserole dish into oven. set oven at 500 degrees.
• while oven is heating melt butter and mix sugars in a seperate bowl.
• remove plastic wrap from dough, and turn over. brush butter onto dough, and spread sugar mixture over it. loosely roll it up.
• when oven is heated remove dutch oven and remove lid. gently lift dough and drop into dutch oven, replace lid and put back in oven. bake for 30 minutes.
• remove lid and bake for another 10 minutes. keep your eye on it, this recipe is exact for my oven but others have reported burning so check on it!
• remove from oven and immediately dump onto cooling rack to cool. yumm!! The bread is done now and you can go ahead and eat it without making the french toast...its so good it might never make the next steps!!!!
• ~~~*~~~FRENCH TOAST~~~*~~~
• slice bread into 3/4 inch slices the night before and lay on cooling racks in cool oven overnight. This will allow the bread to become slightly stale and hold the custard better.
• In the morning, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. mix the ingredients for the egg dip and pour some into a large baking dish. lay bread in the dip and pour more on to soak. after 5 minutes flip and soak another 3 or 4 minutes.
• fry 2 slices at a time in butter until browned, lay in greased baking dish. The frying cooks the outside but the custard is still raw in the middle of the bread, so you have to bake for 15 minutes after frying. Serve with butter, cinnamon sugar, maple syrup or fresh berries and whipped cream!
