A different (but still delicious) twist on the classic!
Savory Challah French Toast
Check out my Tiktok @bakedbygabi for a video on how to make this!
Ingredients
Stale challah
2 eggs
1 egg yolk
1/2 c milk of choice
3 tbsp molasses
1/2 tsp coriander
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp thyme
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 tbsp butter
Directions
Cut the bread into thick slices (3/4 to 1 inch thick).
Cut a little pocket into each slice (not all the way through- you’re not making a sandwich!) and fill with peanut butter.
Whisk together the eggs, egg yolk, milk, molasses, and spices in a medium pan.
Place the bread into the mixture, making sure to soak each side.
Add the butter to a pan over medium heat and melt until frothy.
Add the stuffed bread slices to the pan (shaking off excess liquid beforehand). Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until you achieve crispy, golden crusts. Remove from pan when done.
Top the French toast with molasses and thyme and enjoy!!
