Pioneer Woman Crunchy French Toast Recipe Recipe For Deviled

CRUNCHY FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• In a pie pan, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, half the sugar, and half the cinnamon. Set aside.In a separate pie pan, stir together the panko breadcrumbs with the rest of the sugar and cinnamon. Use a fork to stir in 2 tablespoons of the butter so that the crumbs are slightly moist. Set aside. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the rest of the melted butter over medium-low heat. One by one, dunk the bread in the egg mixture (turning to coat), then lay them in the dish with the panko crumbs, turning them over and pressing them gently so that they stick and totally cover the surface.Place them into the skillet with the butter and let them cook on the first side for 5 to 6 minutes, watching closely to make sure the crumbs don't burn. (If they start to darken too fast, turn the heat slightly lower and watch.) Turn them over and let them cook for 3 minutes on the other side.Transfer the pieces to individual plates and serve with butter and syrup. Delicious!

DEVILED EGG CRISPS WITH CRUNCHY QUINOA

Steps:

• Set a fine sieve over a heatproof bowl. Heat 1/4 inch of canola oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the cooked and cooled quinoa and fry, stirring, until the sizzling stops, about 2 minutes. Transfer the quinoa to the sieve to drain, then transfer it to paper towels to remove any excess oil; season with salt.
• Combine the eggs, mayonnaise, mustard and hot sauce in a food processor; puree until smooth. Scrape down the side of the bowl and puree again. Season the deviled egg puree with salt and white pepper.
• Using a rubber spatula, transfer the deviled egg puree to a large resealable plastic bag. Press the puree into one corner of the bag, then snip off the corner with scissors. Pipe the puree onto crackers. Top the crisps with the crunchy quinoa and snipped chives and serve.

CINNAMON BAKED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• For the French toast: Grease the baking pan with butter. Tear the bread into chunks, or cut into cubes, and evenly distribute in the pan. Crack the eggs in a big bowl. Whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla. Pour evenly over the bread. Cover the pan tightly and store in the fridge until needed (overnight preferably).
• For the topping: Mix the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt and some nutmeg in a separate bowl. Stir together using a fork. Add the butter and with a pastry cutter, and mix it all together until the mixture resembles fine pebbles. Store in a re-sealable plastic bag in the fridge.
• When you're ready to bake the casserole, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the casserole from the fridge and sprinkle the topping over the top. Bake for 45 minutes for a softer, more bread pudding texture or for 1 hour or more for a firmer, crisper texture.
• Scoop out individual portions. Top with butter and drizzle with warm pancake syrup and sprinkle with blueberries.

HOW TO MAKE FRENCH TOAST THAT'S JUST AS EASY AS IT IS DECADENT

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together eggs, half-and-half, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Dunk each bread slice into the mixture so that it's fully coated. Set pieces aside on a plate.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over low heat, then melt a small amount of butter. Add as many pieces as will fit, cut side down, then increase the heat very slightly (don't go above medium-low).
• Allow the toast to cook on the first side for 3 to 4 minutes. Move it around in the skillet a bit to make sure it doesn't burn. When it's deep golden brown on the surface, flip it to the other side and let it cook for another 2 minutes or so.
• Remove from the pan and cook the rest of the bread slices.
• Serve with butter, warm syrup, strawberries, and whipped cream. Absolute heaven!

CRUNCHY FRENCH TOAST STICKS

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a pie plate. Add the half-and-half, vanilla, 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon. Whisk lightly until combined; set aside.
• In a separate pie plate, stir together the panko breadcrumbs, crushed cereal and remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Use a fork to stir in the melted butter so that the crumbs are slightly moist. Crack up at the madness that is in this dish, then set it aside.
• One by one, quickly dunk the bread strips in the egg mixture, turning to coat. Then lay them in the dish with the crumb mixture, turning them over, sprinkling and pressing so the crumbs totally cover the surface. Place the sticks on a rack set in a baking sheet. Flash-freeze for 30 minutes to set the surface.
• Transfer the sticks to zipper bags for storage in the freezer. I do smaller bags of 6 to 8 sticks each, but you can do larger batches if you prefer!
• To bake them from frozen state, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a pan with frozen sticks and bake until golden brown around the edges, 15 to 18 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve with warm pancake syrup for dipping and fruit to make you feel good about life!
