BLACKBERRY FRENCH TOAST

• Spread the bread slices on a baking sheet and turn off the oven. Place the sheet in the oven and leave it overnight until the bread is dried.
• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and 1/4 cup sugar until all yolks are broken, and then add the milk and cream. Put the dried bread pieces on top of the egg mixture. Wait a few minutes, and then push the rest of the bread into the mixture and mix lightly. Place a small or medium casserole dish on a baking sheet that is lined with foil. Brush the dish with some of the melted butter.
• Put half of the bread mixture in the dish to make a layer that covers the bottom. With a slotted spoon, arrange the berries evenly over the bread layer. Sprinkle the berries with sugar. Using your hands, pull out the remaining bread and create a second layer, arranging it evenly and patting down any crusts. With a spatula, stir the remaining egg mixture and pour over the top bread layer. Using a flat pastry brush, lightly brush the rest of the melted butter over the top. Bake the French toast until it rises up about 1-inch on the sides, about 1 hour. Let it cool for about 10 minutes, then cut into servings and serve immediately with sausage patties and fresh fruit.

EASY BLACKBERRIES AND CREAM STUFFED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Place the bread slices on a baking sheet and put into the cold oven.
• Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. This will dry out the bread, making it perfect for French toast!
• In a large bowl beat together the eggs, 1/4 cup sugar, milk, cream, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Set aside.
• Once the oven reaches 350 degrees F check the bread to ensure it's dried out, and then remove from oven. Turn the oven to WARM, or 200 degrees F.
• Take half of the bread slices, and spread a layer of cream cheese on one side. Leave the remaining slices plain.
• In a small bowl, mash the berries with 1 teaspoon of sugar.
• Place a large skillet over medium-low heat and grease with cooking spray or butter.
• Dip a piece of bread with cream cheese and a piece without cream cheese into the egg mixture. Place the slice with cream cheese into the pan first, cream cheese side up.
• Spoon 2 teaspoons of the mashed berries onto the cream cheese and spread evenly. Top with the other slice of bread.
• Cook until golden brown on both sides. Transfer the cooked french toast back to the baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Continue with the remaining bread slices and blackberries.
• Once all the french toast is cooked, remove the baking sheet from the oven and serve warm. Sometimes I top our french toast with a little whipped cream and a fresh blackberry.

BLACKBERRY-STUFFED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Place the berries, 1/3 cup/70 grams granulated sugar, the lemon juice and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small saucepan. Roughly crush the berries with the back of a fork to help release some of their juices.
• Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover with a lid and cook at a strong simmer, stirring occasionally to ensure the berries never stick to the bottom and burn, until the sauce has thickened and reduced by half, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool and thicken for another 10 minutes.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk to combine the eggs, milk, rum, vanilla, a pinch of salt and the remaining 3 tablespoons/30 grams granulated sugar; set aside.
• Lay 4 pieces of bread out on a plate or tray, and divide the cooled fruit across the bread (about 2 to 3 tablespoons each), leaving roughly 3/4-inch of space around the edges of the bread. Top with the remaining 4 slices of bread, and press down lightly to adhere.
• Heat a large frying pan or griddle over medium-high and melt enough butter to coat the bottom. Just as the butter begins to bubble, float a sandwich on top of the egg batter for 3 seconds, then flip to soak the other side for 3 more seconds. Hold the sandwich over the bowl for 10 seconds to allow any excess batter to drip off, then transfer it to the hot pan. Repeat with as many sandwiches as will fit in your pan; you may need to do this in batches. Cook until deep golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side, adding butter to the pan as needed. Transfer to plates and dust generously with confectioners' sugar.
