CHEF JOHN'S FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

WIFE SAVER FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Stir the brown sugar, corn syrup, and butter together in a saucepan over medium-high heat until bubbly. Pour into the prepared baking dish, then arrange the sliced French bread evenly over the syrup. Whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, flour, and salt until smooth. Pour over the French bread. Cover, and refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Stir together the white sugar and ground cinnamon; sprinkle over the french toast.
• Bake in preheated oven until golden brown on top, about 50 minutes.

EIBROT (SWISS VERSION OF FRENCH TOAST)

Steps:

• Cube bread into bite size pieces using a serrated knife.
• Dust cubed bread with cinnamon.
• Combine the eggs with the half & half, milk and vanilla.
• Whisk together and pour over the cubed Challah, tossing gently to coat each piece thoroughly, but not break it up into mush.
• Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Cook the Eibrot in the heated skillet (you'll be doing this in several batches) until golden brown all over, tossing gently with a spatula to evenly cook on all sides.
• Once browned, add 1-1/2 tbsp of butter and 1/4 cup of sugar, tossing to coat.
• Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until sugar is completely melted and evenly coating the Eibrot.
• Remove to a serving plate, and repeat with remaning Eibrot.
• Serve with fresh berries (blackberries are particularly delicious!) and a dollop of whipped cream, on the side (optional).

SAVORY FRENCH TOAST WITH SWISS CHARD AND EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200˚ F. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, tomatoes and chard stems and cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the chard leaves and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to an ovenproof dish and keep warm in the oven. Wipe out the skillet and return to the stovetop.
• Whisk 3 eggs, the milk, sage, 1 teaspoon pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a baking dish. Lay the bread in the dish, flipping the slices once or twice to fully soak. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Carefully lift the bread from the egg mixture, letting the excess drip off. Cook in the skillet until golden, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking sheet, top each with a slice of cheese and melt in the oven.
• Wipe out the skillet and heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Crack in the remaining 4 eggs and cook until the whites are set, about 5 minutes. Divide the French toast among plates. Top each with the vegetables and a fried egg; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with the hot honey.

FRENCH TOAST BAKE

Steps:

• Slice bread and cut off and discard crusts. Beat milk, eggs, and vanilla together in a bowl until well combined.
• Stir melted butter and brown sugar together until well mixed. Pour into the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan; spread evenly. Layer bread slices over top. Pour milk mixture evenly over bread. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Cover with aluminum foil and chill in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.

• Bake, covered, for 30 minutes. Remove cover and continue to bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 15 more minutes.

FRENCH TOAST II

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs till frothy.
• Add remaining ingredients, and mix well.
• Over medium heat, lightly grease skillet with shortening (butter will burn very quickly, so exercise caution if using butter). I use a paper towel, so I can use it repeatedly, with every 2 or 3 pans of French toast. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, on both sides.
• Do this quickly, so as not to completely soak the bread.
• Cook in skillet over med/med-high heat for approx 5 min per side. You may need to flip more than once to get th e desired golden-brown color.
• Serve with butter and powdered sugar, or preserves (my favorite) or syrup.
