Indulge in this delightful twist on a breakfast classic with our Strawberry French Toast made with multi-grain bread. This nutritious yet delicious dish combines the hearty texture of multi-grain bread with the sweetness of fresh strawberries, making it a perfect start to your day.
Instructions:
- Wash and hull the strawberries. Slice them into halves or quarters depending on their size.
- In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until they are well-beaten.
- Add the milk and sugar to the bowl with the eggs. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and the sugar is dissolved.
- In a large skillet or frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Ensure it's spread evenly across the surface of the pan to avoid sticking.
- Dip each slice of multi-grain bread into the egg mixture. Allow each slice to sit in the mixture for a few seconds to absorb it, but not so long that the bread becomes soggy.
- Ensure both sides are evenly coated.
- Place the soaked bread slices into the hot skillet.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until each side is golden brown and cooked through.
- Depending on the size of your skillet, you may need to cook the bread in batches. Add more butter if needed.
- While the toast is cooking, you can lightly sauté the strawberries in a separate small pan with a bit of sugar for 1-2 minutes until they soften, if you prefer them warm and slightly caramelized. This step is optional.
- Place the cooked French toast slices on a plate.
- Top with the fresh or sautéed strawberries.
- Serve immediately, optionally drizzling with maple syrup, honey, or a light dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
Tips:
- For added flavor, mix a dash of vanilla extract or a sprinkle of cinnamon into the egg mixture.
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best taste and texture.
- Cook the French toast over medium heat to ensure it cooks evenly without burning.
- Serve with a drizzle of maple syrup or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
Enjoy the balance of wholesome multi-grain goodness and the sweet, tangy burst of strawberries with every bite of this Strawberry French Toast. It's a satisfying and delicious way to begin your morning.
