Instructions
Make the filling:
Notes
- Use room-temperature mascarpone cheese. This will make it easier to blend and achieve a smooth, creamy filling.
- Do not overstuff the bread. Spread the mascarpone filling evenly but leave a little space at the edges to prevent the filling from oozing out while cooking. Make sure to seal the edges too.
- Dip not soak. Dip the mascarpone stuffed French toast into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are well-coated-- but don't soak them for too long or they will become soggy and break apart.
- Preheat your pan. Make sure your cooking surface (griddle or skillet) is properly preheated. Cooking on low to medium heat should allow for even browning without burning the outside before the inside is cooked.
- Keep them warm. Place the stuffed French toast in the oven to keep them warm while cooking the rest. Cooked French toast can be held in a 250-degree oven for up to 1 hour before serving.
- Other topping ideas. Aside from fruits, you can top your mascarpone stuffed French toast with other goodies like like whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, crushed nuts, sprinkles, chocolate chips, or dried fruits, and drizzle with different sauces like raspberry or caramel.
