This buttermilk French toast recipe is perfect for those weekend mornings when you want to cook up something special. With just a few simple ingredients, you can whip up a gourmet breakfast that will impress family and friends alike. Let's dive into making Buttermilk French Toast with Maple Syrup!
Ingredients:
Instructions:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 4 eggs, 1.5 cups dried milk, 1/4 tsp salt, and 3 tbsp sugar until well combined. This will create a rich, flavorful custard base for your French toast.
Slice your baguette into 12 even pieces, approximately 1-inch thick each. Submerge each bread slice in the egg mixture, allowing them to soak thoroughly for about 1-2 minutes per side. Ensure the bread absorbs a good amount of the mixture without becoming too soggy.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once heated, add 1.5 tbsp of the butter and let it melt, coating the surface evenly.
Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, place soaked bread slices onto the skillet. Cook each slice for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Use additional butter as needed for each new batch to prevent sticking and add flavor.
Once all slices are cooked, transfer them to serving plates. Drizzle each serving generously with the 1/2 cup of maple syrup. For an extra touch, you can dust with powdered sugar, add fresh berries, or a dollop of whipped cream.
Serve your Buttermilk French Toast warm and enjoy a delightful breakfast or brunch treat!
Tips:
- Use a day-old baguette for the best texture; fresh bread might become too soggy.
- Let the bread slices soak in the buttermilk mixture for at least 5 minutes to absorb the flavors thoroughly.
- Cook the French toast on medium heat to ensure it cooks evenly without burning.
- Be sure to preheat your skillet or griddle before adding butter for perfect golden-brown slices.
- Serve with fresh fruits or a dusting of powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
With its golden, crispy exterior and soft, flavorful inside, this buttermilk French toast with maple syrup is sure to become a breakfast favorite. The delicate balance of flavors and textures is truly irresistible. Serve it warm, and don't forget to drizzle on plenty of extra maple syrup for an unforgettable breakfast experience. Enjoy your deliciously decadent start to the day!
