French Toast Roll Ups With Lemon Curd And Blueberries Recipes

LEMON-BERRY FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Make the egg mixture for Perfect French Toast using 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger instead of nutmeg. Spread lemon curd on 4 thick slices brioche, top with blueberries, then another bread slice. Press together; dip in the egg mixture, then fry and bake as directed. Top with confectioners' sugar.

LEMON BLUEBERRY FRENCH TOAST BAKE

Steps:

• Grease an 8-inch square baking dish with butter.
• Add the butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment and whip on medium speed for 1 minute. With the mixer running, slowly pour in the maple syrup and 1 teaspoon of the vanilla bean paste and whip until completely combined. Transfer to a serving bowl and reserve.
• Keep the rolls intact and slice across the equator to create 1 large top and 1 large bottom roll. Place the bottom roll in the baking dish, then spread with 2 tablespoons of the maple butter. Sprinkle with the lemon zest and half of the blueberries and top with the top roll.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, cream, sugar, eggs, remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste and a pinch of salt. Pour the mixture over the rolls. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 40 to 45 minutes. Remove the foil, then continue to bake until golden brown, about 10 more minutes.
• Arrange scoops of the maple butter on top and sprinkle with the bacon and remaining blueberries. Serve with additional maple syrup.

FRENCH TOAST ROLL UPS

Steps:

• Trim the bread crusts and use a rolling pin to flatten each slice into a square.
• Spread about 1 tablespoon peanut butter, followed by 1/2 tablespoon hazelnut spread onto each bread square. Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon mini chocolate chips on each bread square, and roll up.
• Whisk eggs and milk together in a small bowl. Coat each roll with the egg mixture.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place roll ups seam side down into the skillet and cook until golden brown on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Add more butter to the skillet, if necessary.
• Sprinkle cinnamon sugar onto a plate, and as soon as roll ups come out of the skillet, roll them in the sugar, shaking off excess. Serve warm.
