If there was a breakfast food that I could eat every single day, it would be French Toast. I love it!! I love it served the standard way with a dunk in a milk/egg bath and then made golden in a hot skillet. But sometimes you just want to add a little pizzazz to a favorite dish and make it even more special – like when you’re serving guests!
Last week I opened my favorite Cooking Light Cookbook and adapted their recipe to come up with my version of Crispy, Fruity French Toast. The crispiness comes from Rice Krispy Cereal. It adds a nice little crunch to the toast. Topping the final product with fresh berries and a sprinkling of powdered sugar makes it sublime!
The other great thing about this recipe is that it’s baked in the oven instead of having to be browned in a pan on the stove. Like my quesadillas from last week’s post, this makes this a great recipe for a crowd because of this cooking method! You can put a whole sheet pan of French Toast in the oven for 15 minutes and finish up other details of breakfast while it’s baking!
I served it with bacon to add some protein. The fruit on top is a perfect sweetness! Oh, this was good. I hope you’ll try it!!
