French Toast

Blueberry Orange Compote

Method

French Toast

  1. 1

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

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

  2. 2

    Soak the Bread

    Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated. Allow to soak for a few seconds.

  3. 3

    Cook the French Toast

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the soaked bread slices and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Blueberry Orange Compote

  1. 4

    Cook the Compote

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, orange juice, sugar, and orange zest. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes, until the blueberries have burst and the mixture has thickened slightly.

Mascarpone Crema

  1. 5

    Make the Crema

    In a mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
