French toast topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 1 cup low-fat cream (10-12%)
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tbsp. honey, heated in the microwave for 20 seconds
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 8 slices (1.5 cm thick) rustic bread, buns or challah, day-old or stale
- 4 tbsp (60 g) butter
Preparation:
- In a medium bowl, combine the cream, eggs, honey, and salt. You can do this the day before. Before cooking, pour this sweet batter into a wide bowl.
- Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F). Dip the bread in the batter, let it soak for 30 seconds on each side, and place it on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Let it rest for 1-2 minutes.
- Melt 1 tablespoon (15 g) butter in a 25 cm (10 in) nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Place 2 slices of bread in the skillet and toast until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and place on a wire rack in the oven for 5 minutes. Repeat with all the bread slices. Serve immediately with maple syrup, whipped cream, or fruit.
