Peanut Butter White Chocolate Stuffed French Toast

It’s simple really.

I’ve now discovered that, thanks to my tall handsome husband, I am addicted to French toast.  It’s true.  And as surely as Bunker is drooling over the peanut butter jar in the picture above I am now dreaming up roughly 2,000 different French toast stuffings in my brain as I write.  This has got to be a gift from God, this stuffed French toast thing.

And the best part?  The best part is there’s really no “recipe” per se; you get the basic custard down and then use whatever bread you like and whatever stuffing you like.  For me this morning it was day-old rolls from a local bakery and the remaining peanut butter and white chocolate chips we have in our house.  Tomorrow…well, let’s just say it’s probably only going to get more decadent as time rolls along.

 

BASIC FRENCH TOAST CUSTARD

  • 2 whole eggs (if you’re going vegan do 2 flax eggs – 2 Tbsp milled flax mixed with 6 Tbsp warm water and let sit for 5 minutes)
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup milk (whatever milk you have on hand)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Whisk everything together and let sit for a few minutes to let the sugar dissolve.  Whisk again.  Dunk your bread (in sandwich form if you’re stuffing it) and then cook on a buttered griddle for about 3-4 minutes on each side on a low heat.

 

DEVOUR.

Sigh.  I’m just not sure if the rest of the day’s meals will match up to breakfast…hate it when that happens…

    Yummy!!!! I haven’t had breakfast yet, and I have to say you’re really tempting me! I was thinking about having bran cereal. Your photos have made the thought of bran cereal sound so boring. Should I give into temptation? I’m not sure I’ll be able to resist! 🙂

    YUM YUM YUM. You inspired me to stop reading my blogs and go make this. I stuffed mine with fresh strawberries and it was perfect. Way to go!

    HA! I hate when that happens, too. LOVE me some peanut butter and I haven’t made French toast in ages. You could also use a panini press for these. And maybe add some Nutella– now that’s just dirty 🙂

    Yesss! I cooked my own made-up version of stuffed french toast not too long ago, and it was even more random than your leftover white chocolate chips and peanut butter! That’s the beauty of french toast … when you have “no groceries”, usually, you still have enough of something to make french toast!! 🙂

    Hello Heather,
    I’m a french person and I visit a lot of american food blogs, in which I read very often, the term “french toast”. It has surprised me often and most of all, I was very intrigued (?) because I didn’t understand the real meaning of this, and the equivalence in french cook. Today, I’ve found, and as I’m very proud of it, I would like to share with you, the translation of French toast : “Pain Perdu” !! Who can be translated by “lost bread”… Which mean nothing in American, I admit … !! It just means that it was the bread of the day before generally, that we didn’t want to through away.
    I’m happy to know that it has crossed the ocean !
