Instructions
- Whipped Cream: Add all of the ingredients to a stand mixer with the whisk attachment and mix on high speed to form stiff peaks, which takes about 3-4 minutes. Chill until ready to use.
- In a large bowl whisk together the eggs, ½ and 1/2, cinnamon, vanilla, and sugar until completely combined. Set aside.
- In a large skillet or griddle over medium heat, add in some butter until melted.
- Dip 1 piece of bread on each side into the batter and place it into the pan or griddle and cook for 1 to 2 minutes per side or until browned and crisp. Cook in batches or as many as can fit in your pan or griddle.
- Add optional toppings of mascarpone whipped cream, fresh berries, powdered sugar, and maple syrup.
Notes
- Chef Notes:
- Make-Ahead: French toast is meant to be eaten right away. If you want to make it ahead of time, keep it warm in the oven at 250° for up to 1 hour.
- How to Reheat: Spread the cooked pieces of French toast onto a sheet tray lined with parchment paper and bake at 350° for 4-6 minutes or until hot. Likewise, you can add it to a microwave-safe plate and heat until hot.
- How to Store: Place covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. This will not freeze well.
- There will be plenty of mascarpone whipped cream leftover but don’t worry because it goes amazing on any dessert or pancakes.
