French Toast Brunch Recipes

FRENCH TOAST "BRUNCH"

Steps:

• Muddle strawberry and sugar in a glass with a little of the Champagne. Pour into a champagne glass and then top with Champagne.
• For a nonalcoholic version, replace Champagne with cider.

BRUNCH BAKED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Whisk eggs, milk, and salt together in a bowl; pour into a shallow dish. Soak bread slices in egg mixture until saturated.
• Spread softened butter over the bottom of a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan. Sprinkle brown sugar over the butter. Arrange bread slices onto sugar in a single layer; sprinkle with cinnamon.
• Bake in preheated oven until beginning to firm, 25 to 30 minutes.

OVERNIGHT FRENCH TOAST BAKE

Steps:

• Mix eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon together.
• Place bread slices in a greased 9x13-inch pan. Pour egg mixture over top. Cover and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
• Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cream together brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup; it will be very thick. Spread over the bread, then sprinkle with walnuts.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 1 hour.

OVERNIGHT FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Place bread slices in a generously greased 9x13-inch baking dish, overlapping the slices.
• Place eggs, half-and-half, milk, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a medium bowl and mix thoroughly with a rotary beater or whisk. Pour mixture over bread, making sure all slices are moistened. Cover and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes.

FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, vanilla and cinnamon. Lay the brioche slices in a single layer in a shallow dish and pour the egg mixture over them. Allow to soak for 2-3 mins, then carefully turn over and soak for 2 mins more.
• Heat 1 tbsp of the vegetable oil and butter in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat until foaming. Carefully lift 2 slices of the soaked brioche out of the dish and add to the frying pan. Fry for 3 mins on each side, until golden and crisp, then place on a wire rack over a baking tray in a warm oven while you repeat with the remaining slices.
• Serve dusted in icing sugar and scattered with fresh berries, if you like.
