French toast with bacon and maple syrup is a delightful breakfast dish that combines the rich, creamy flavors of French toast with the savory crunch of bacon. This recipe is perfect for weekend brunches or special occasions, offering a balance of sweet and savory that is sure to please any palate. With cherry tomatoes adding a fresh, juicy contrast, this dish is both satisfying and delicious.
- For a richer taste, consider using whole milk or even half-and-half instead of 1% milk.
- To ensure the bacon is extra crispy, bake it on a wire rack over a baking sheet in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes.
- Use day-old bread or slightly stale bread for the French toast. Fresh bread can become too soggy.
- Soak the bread slices in the egg mixture for about 30 seconds on each side to ensure they absorb enough liquid without becoming too soggy.
- Cook the French toast on medium heat to ensure it cooks evenly without burning.
- Serve the French toast immediately for the best texture, and drizzle the maple syrup over the top just before serving.
- Cherry tomatoes can be sautéed in a little olive oil with salt and pepper for added flavor.
- If you prefer a less sweet French toast, you can reduce the amount of sugar or omit it entirely, especially if using a sweet syrup or topping.
French toast with bacon and maple syrup is not only a flavorful and crowd-pleasing dish but also relatively simple to prepare. The combination of soft, golden-brown toast, crispy bacon, and sweet maple syrup creates a harmonious blend of tastes and textures that will leave everyone wanting more.
