Description
Mini Strawberry French Toast is a delightful breakfast dish featuring sweet, macerated strawberries atop golden-brown French toast made from brioche or challah bread.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 4 slices of brioche or challah bread
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Toss to coat and let sit for about 10 minutes to macerate.
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface.
- Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Place the dipped bread onto the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
- Once the French toast is cooked, remove it from the skillet and top with the macerated strawberries. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
- Serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use half-and-half instead of milk in the egg mixture.
- Add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top for an indulgent treat.
