Stuffed French Toast Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Make the Blackberry Gastrique

   In a saucepan, combine blackberries, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes until thickened. Strain the mixture to remove the seeds and set aside.

2. 2

   Prepare the Pastry Cream

   Prepare your pastry cream according to your favorite recipe or use store-bought. Allow it to cool completely.

3. 3

   Prepare the Egg Mixture

   In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.

4. 4

   Assemble the French Toast

   Spread a generous amount of pastry cream between two slices of thick bread to create a sandwich. Repeat for all slices.

5. 5

   Cook the French Toast

   Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Dip each stuffed sandwich in the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, and cook in the skillet for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown.

6. 6

   Melt the White Chocolate

   In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chopped white chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.

7. 7

   Serve

   Plate the stuffed French toast, drizzle with blackberry gastrique, and drizzle melted white chocolate on top. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
