Pecan Streusel French Toast Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Make the Pecan Streusel

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine pecans, brown sugar, flour, butter, and salt. Mix until crumbly, then spread evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden. Let cool.

2. 2

   Prepare the French Toast Mixture

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

3. 3

   Cook the French Toast

   Slice the baguette into thick slices. Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Dip each slice of baguette in the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then place in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

4. 4

   Prepare the Maple Bourbon Mascarpone

   In a bowl, mix mascarpone cheese, maple syrup, and bourbon until smooth and creamy.

5. 5

   Assemble the Dish

   Place the cooked French toast on plates. Top with pecan streusel, fresh berries, a drizzle of caramel sauce, and a dollop of maple bourbon mascarpone.
