FRENCH TOAST STUFFED WITH BACON, ONION TOMATO JAM WITH GRUYERE, AND A FRIED EGG



French Toast Stuffed with Bacon, Onion Tomato Jam with Gruyere, and a Fried Egg image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

8 slices bacon, cut into 1/4-inch lardons
Extra virgin olive oil
1 onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
Kosher salt
Pinch of crushed red pepper
1 large beefsteak tomato, seeded and cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 sprigs of fresh oregano, leaves finely chopped
4 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
Pinch of cayenne (optional)
Kosher salt
8 slices tight-crumbed white bread
11/2 cups grated Gruyere cheese
Extra virgin olive oil
4 large eggs
1 bunch of fresh chives, finely chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • For the filling: Toss the bacon into a large saute pan with a few drops of olive oil. Bring the pan to medium heat and cook the bacon until brown and crispy, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the onion and season with salt and the crushed red pepper. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and very aromatic, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Add the tomato, season with more salt, and cook for another 8 to 10 minutes or until the tomatoes are soft and mushy and most of the liquid has evaporated. Taste and reseason if needed. Stir in the oregano and let cool.
  • For the French toast: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • In a wide, flat dish, combine the eggs, milk, cayenne (if using), and a pinch of salt. Beat until smooth and homogeneous.
  • Lay 4 slices of bread on a work surface. Using half the Gruyere, sprinkle each piece of bread lightly with cheese. Spoon a quarter of the bacon filling onto each piece of bread and then sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Top each slice with another piece of bread and press to secure.
  • Working in batches, soak each "toast" in the egg mixture for about 1 minute; flip and soak the other side.
  • While the toasts are soaking, coat a large saute pan with olive oil and bring the pan to medium heat.
  • Working in batches so you don't crowd the pan, cook the toasts for 2 to 3 minutes per side. The toasts should be golden brown, lovely, and crisp-YUM! Transfer the toasts to a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm.
  • For the fried eggs and assembly:
  • Coat a large nonstick saute pan lightly with olive oil and bring to medium heat. Add the eggs to the pan, working in batches if necessary. Cook them until the whites are cooked through and the yolks are warm and runny, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Remove the toasts from the oven and top each with a perfectly fried egg. Sprinkle with chives if you like and serve immediately.

CHEDDAR AND BACON STUFFED FRENCH TOAST



Cheddar and Bacon Stuffed French Toast image

Sponsored by Cabot Creamery Co-operative. This is my ultimate sweet and savory breakfast French toast, a cheese lover's dream. It's a great base recipe too if you want to add some sautéed greens to balance out the richness. I like to eat it with maple syrup.

Provided by Jet Tila

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 slices thick-cut bacon
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup, plus more for serving (optional)
1/4 cup light brown sugar
2 cups finely grated sharp Cheddar, such as Cabot Vermont Sharp Cheddar Cheese (about 4 ounces)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Four (2- to-3-inch thick) slices challah bread, egg bread or brioche
4 large eggs
2 cups half-and-half
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil.
  • Place the bacon on the prepared pan, brush on the maple syrup and sprinkle with the brown sugar. Bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Let cool until the glaze sets, about 15 minutes.
  • Finely dice 4 slices of the glazed bacon and place in a medium bowl. Stir in 1 cup of the cheese and season with salt and pepper.
  • Laying the slices of bread on their side, cut a pocket horizontally into the center of each with a paring knife, making sure not to cut all the way through. Stuff each piece of bread with 3 to 4 tablespoons of the bacon and cheese mixture.
  • Whisk together the eggs and half-and-half in a large baking dish. Stir in about 1/2 cup of the remaining cheese. Add the stuffed bread and let soak for about 1 minute. Turn over to coat. Let them sit in the custard until they are soaked, but not falling-apart soggy, about 2 minutes.
  • Preheat a large or 11-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Add 3 tablespoons of the butter; it should melt pretty quickly and turn a pale brown. Lift each stuffed bread out of the custard, letting it drip for about a second, then gently place it into the skillet. Cook, in batches if needed, until golden brown on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Reduce the heat to medium low if the toast is browning too quickly. You'll know they're done when each toast is firm and bounces back when you touch it, which means the custard is cooked through.
  • To create cheese crusts, remove the toasts to a plate and sprinkle a thin even layer of the remaining cheese into the bare skillet (see Cook's Note). Return the toasts to the skillet and cook over medium heat until the cheese melts, crusts and hardens, about 2 minutes. You're just crusting one side of the toast, so remove the toast from the skillet, cheese-crust-side up. Serve with the remaining 8 slices of glazed bacon and 3 tablespoons of softened butter. Add maple syrup if you love sweet and savory like I do.

BACON, EGG, AND CHEESE BAKED FRENCH TOAST



Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Baked French Toast image

Is this the ultimate brunch centerpiece? We think so! It's a flavor cross of the world's best breakfast sandwich and a classic egg-and-cheese strata-and you can prep it up to a day in advance. Next morning, slide the whole shebang into the oven and watch it puff up dramatically into a sliceable feast.

Provided by Sarah Carey

Time 6h15m

Yield Serves 8 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 loaf sandwich bread (about 1 pound), cut into 10-to-12 slices (3/4-inch-thick)
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved (or left whole, if small)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more (or softened unsalted butter) for baking sheet
Kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal) and freshly ground pepper
6 strips thick-cut bacon (6 ounces total)
8 large eggs
1 2/3 cups whole or 2 percent milk
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
3 ounces sharp cheddar, grated (3/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Spread bread on a rimmed baking sheet and let dry out, 4 to 6 hours. Preheat oven to 375°F. Toss tomatoes with oil; season with salt and pepper. Spread on one side of a parchment-lined 12 1/2-by-9 1/2-inch rimmed baking sheet (quarter sheet pan). On other side, arrange bacon in as close to a single layer as possible (it's okay if slices overlap slightly).
  • Roast until tomatoes are wrinkled and beginning to soften and bacon is about three-quarters cooked, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven; transfer tomatoes and bacon to a plate. Discard fat and remove parchment. Wash sheet, then brush with oil or butter.
  • In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Dip bread slices one at a time in egg mixture, turning to coat, then arrange on sheet in shingled, overlapping layers (we arranged ours in three rows of four).
  • Pour remaining egg mixture evenly over top (it will pool on top and sink through to bottom, but will be absorbed as it sits). Sprinkle with parsley and cheese, then top with bacon and tomatoes. Refrigerate, covered, at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake French toast, uncovered, 15 minutes, then reduce temperature to 350° and continue baking until puffed and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes more. Let cool slightly before serving.
