Cookie Butter French Toast
Cookie Butter French Toast is one of our favorite breakfasts. I begin this recipe by baking a challah. But, feel free to use a store-bought challah, a brioche, or just regular white bread. While my personal French toast preference is a challah, I think almost any homemade bread would be absolutely delicious in this recipe. Next, I sandwich cookie butter between two pieces of challah and dip them in beaten eggs mixed with heavy cream. Then, I fry the challah sandwiches in butter, until they’re golden brown. Finally, I spread the toast with more cookie butter. And I serve the toast with sliced strawberries and whipped cream.
THE EQUIPMENT I USED
- A Non-Stick Pan- Using a non-stick pan ensures that your toast won’t stick to the pan.
- A Strawberry Corer- I use this to remove the cores from the strawberries, and it’s a real time saver.
THE INGREDIENTS NEEDED FOR COOKIE BUTTER FRENCH TOAST
- Challah- I like to use homemade challah. The recipe is attached below.
- Cookie Butter- I use the Lotus Biscoff brand of cookie butter.
- Heavy Cream- Beat your eggs with cream. Or, you could use whole milk.
- Butter- Use this to fry the French toast. I prefer unsalted butter.
HOW I MADE MY FRENCH TOAST
- First, I beat together the eggs and cream until they were well combined.
- Next, I spread half of the bread with cookie butter, and then placed a plain slice of challah on top to form sandwiches.
- Then, I dipped each sandwich into the egg and cream.
- Next, I fried the French toast. It’s important to watch the toast closely to make sure it doesn’t burn.
- Finally, I served the French toast with additional cookie butter spread on the top and sliced strawberries.
We all really loved this Cookie Butter French Toast. I hope you’ll try it soon!
Cookie Butter French Toast
Challah French Toast filled with melted cookie butter and topped with strawberries.
Ingredients
- ½ cup cookie butter
- 8 slices challah, sliced a half inch thick
- 4 eggs
- 4 tbsp. heavy cream
- 4 tbsp. unsalted butter
- 2 cups sliced strawberries
Instructions
- Spread four slices of challah with half the cookie butter, and then top each slice with a plain piece of challah, so that you have four challah sandwiches.
- Next, in a second bowl, mix together the eggs and cream.
- Melt one tablespoon of the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Dip each challah sandwich briefly in the egg mixture. You don't want to soak the bread in the egg.
