Strawberry Jam French Toast

The thing I loved the most about the sweet breakfasts were that they were usually pancakes or French toast, and they were always topped with some sort of fun compound butter. Salted caramel butter on banana pancakes? Yep. Chocolate butter to accompany the croissants? That happened too. And then, of course, fresh strawberry-flecked butter for French toast. I was hooked.

Ingredients :
  • Sliced fresh strawberries, for serving
  • Warm pure maple syrup, for serving
  • Unsalted butter
  • Salt
  • 1/2 tsp. Pure vanilla extract
  • 3 Large whole eggs
  • 3/4 cup Buttermilk
  • Strawberry preserves
  • 1 Brioche bread, sliced into 1/2-inch thick slices
  • Strawberry Butter
  • pint Salt
  • 2 oz. Fresh strawberries, stems removed and halved
Directions :
  1. Prepare Strawberry Butter: In the bowl of a small food processor, combine the softened butter, fresh strawberry chunks, and salt. Pulse and process until butter come together, scraping down the bowl with a spatula as needed until the batter is smooth and evenly flecked with fresh strawberry pieces. Transfer to a small bowl, and set aside. Best restaurants near me
  2. Prepare French toast: Slice the brioche into 1/2-inch thick slices (you will need two slices for each serving of French toast). Spread one slice with a thin layer of strawberry preserves, and top with another slice of brioche bread. Set aside.
  3. In a large, shallow bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, vanilla extract and salt. Set aside.
  4. Right before cooking, dip the sandwiched challah in the egg-buttermilk mixture, turning them until they have just become saturated. Allow any excess egg-buttermilk mixture to drip off, and place in the hot buttered pan. Avoid over-crowding the pan. Cook the french toast until golden brown on each side, flipping carefully with a wide heatproof spatula.
  5. Top the hot French toast with a spoonful of strawberry butter, and sliced strawberries. Serve immediately with maple syrup.
