STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Melt a few Tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-heat.
• In a large shallow bowl or pie plate, whisk the eggs and egg yolks until well combined. Add in the cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugars, and whisk until well combined. Finally, whisk in the milk, heavy cream, vanilla, and grand marnier.
• Dip each slice of brioche into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are well coated.
• Place brioche slices into skillet and cook until the undersides are golden brown, about 3 minutes.
• Flip, and continue cooking on the other side until equally golden brown, about another 2 to 3 minutes.
• Continue with all french toast, adding more butter to the pan as needed.
• Serve warm, with strawberry sauce and whipped cream!
• In a small saucepan, melt the butter. Continue cooking until it smells slightly nutty and is a deep golden brown.
• Stir in the sugar, orange juice, and half of the strawberries. Cook over a medium heat for about 10 minutes, or until the strawberries have softened and the juice is slightly thickened.
• In a small bowl combine the water and cornstarch, whisk until smooth. Then add it into the strawberry sauce.
• Bring back to a boil and cook, stirring constantly, for about 2 minutes, or until thickened.
• Add the rest of the strawberries and cook for 5 more minutes, stirring frequently.
• Remove from heat and stir in the Grand Marnier, if using. Spoon over French toast.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, or in a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, combine the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla extract.

FRENCH TOAST WITH STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F, and warm an ovenproof serving platter in the oven.
• In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of the berries with the water and bring to a simmer. Cook over medium heat until the berries are softened and set aside until ready to serve. Keep warm.
• In a shallow bowl, large enough to soak a few slices of bread, whisk together eggs and 1 cup cream.
• In a large nonstick griddle or skillet over medium heat, melt a large pat of butter. Be sure to cover the cooking surface with the melted butter. Working in batches, dip however many slices of brioche that can be cooked on the griddle at a time, in the egg/cream mixture. Turn bread over and be sure to not let the bread get too soggy.
• Transfer the bread to the preheated and buttered griddle and cook until golden brown and slightly crisp, about 3 minutes per side. Place the cooked French toast on the warm serving platter in the oven and cover loosely with foil. These will keep warm in the oven while the remaining slices are prepared.
• Whip the remaining 1 cup of cream, in a medium bowl, with a hand-held mixer, until soft peaks form. Serve the French toast topped with the warm strawberries, remaining sliced fresh strawberries and whipped cream.
