Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup drained jarred high-quality maraschino cherries, such as Luxardo
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons sugar
2 strips lemon peel (using a peeler)
1 cup dark rum
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
3 large eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 tablespoons honey
Two 1 1/2-inch thick challah bread slices
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
2 lemons, zested

Steps:

  • Combine the cherries, lemon juice, sugar and lemon strips in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook until the mixture has thickened, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, add the rum and return it to the heat to burn off the alcohol, about 1 minute or until the flame is gone.
  • Whisk together the milk, cream, eggs, almond extract and honey in a shallow bowl. Soak the bread in the custard mixture.
  • Heat the butter in a large saute pan wide enough to fit both pieces of bread over medium heat until frothing. Drain off the excess custard from the bread, add the slices to the pan and cook the on both sides until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes a side.
  • Finish in a 375 degrees F oven if the center is still wet, 5 minutes at most.
  • Serve by placing the French toast on a platter, along with the cherries jubilee sauce. Finish with the zest of the lemons and a dusting of confectioners' sugar.

FRENCH TOAST



French Toast image

You can use white sandwich bread, but French toast also works well with other loaves, including brioche, challah, cinnamon-raisin, whole-wheat, French, even sourdough.

Provided by Jessica Furniss

Time 20m

Yield 6 slices

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large eggs
⅔ cup whole milk (or high-fat milk alternative)
1 teaspoon sugar
Dash of salt
½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Dash of cinnamon (optional)
6 slices white bread (or bread of choice)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
Toppings, such as fruit, syrup, butter, or powdered sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, and salt (as well as the optional vanilla extract and cinnamon, if using) in a medium shallow bowl until the mixture is fluffy and light in color.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working with one bread slice at a time, soak the bread in the egg mixture for 3 to 4 seconds per side. Don't let the slices sit too long; they will turn soggy and fall apart.
  • Once butter is melted and bubbling, add 3 soaked bread slices to hot pan and cook until golden brown, or about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. (There may be some spots that do not brown; that's normal.)
  • Flip each slice, and cook until gold brown, or about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Repeat with remaining butter and egg-soaked bread. Serve hot with toppings of choice.

CLASSIC FRENCH TOAST



Classic French Toast image

Here's a recipe for the kind of French toast people line up for outside restaurants on Sunday morning. It's simple: no new ingredients, tools or technology needed. You don't even need stale bread. What you do need is thick-cut white bread, dunked into an egg-milk mixture with extra richness from egg yolks and heavy cream. That gives the French toast a buttery taste and firm but fluffy texture. (Oversoaking is the enemy here; the mixture should fill the bread, not cause it to break.) For an appetizing, lacy brown crust, sprinkle on sugar toward the end of cooking: It will caramelize and turn glossy. Just make sure to keep the heat low after you add the sugar. Otherwise, it could burn quickly over high heat.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 whole eggs
2 egg yolks
2 cups whole milk, or 1 3/4 cups milk, plus 2 to 4 tablespoons cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Pinch of salt
Unsalted butter, for cooking
8 slices white bread, such as Pullman, brioche or challah, sliced 1/2- to 3/4-inch thick
Cinnamon sugar or granulated sugar (see note)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200 degrees, and place a wire rack on a sheet pan inside.
  • In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs, additional yolks, milk, vanilla (if using) and salt until foamy and smooth. Set aside. Place a small lump of butter (enough to coat the bottom of the skillet when melted) in a large, heavy nonstick skillet over low heat. It will melt very slowly.
  • When butter is just melted and bubbling, raise heat and bring to a sizzle. Place 2 slices of bread in the bowl with the egg mixture. Turn them a few times in the mixture until evenly saturated, about 5 seconds on each side. Do not soak.
  • Lift a slice out of the egg mixture, gently shake off any excess, and place in the pan. Repeat until the skillet is full, and let the slices cook at a sizzle for about 2 minutes, until just turning golden brown on the bottom.
  • Add another small lump of butter to the pan and flip the slices over, swirling the pan so that the fresh butter coats the bottom. (This will allow the second side to brown.)
  • Continue cooking over low heat until the second side is golden brown. Dust with cinnamon sugar, flip again, and dust the other side. Test for doneness by pressing the center: The dent should slowly spring back. If it remains, the interior is not yet cooked. Continue cooking at low heat, flipping occasionally, until done. Serve immediately, or transfer to the oven to keep warm while cooking remaining bread. Serve as soon as possible. Top with maple syrup, berries, jam, sliced bananas, orange supremes - whatever you'd like.
