Ingredients

French Toast:

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom
  • 1/4 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 Loaf Canyon Bakehouse Heritage Honey White Bread
  • 1/4 cup butter

Vanilla Cream Sauce:

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 Vanilla Bean, pulp scraped and reserved
  • 1/2 cup Cane Sugar
  • 5 egg yolks

Instructions

  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, and spices.
  • Heat a large skillet or griddle and add 1 Tbsp. butter.
  • Working one at a time, coat each slice of bread with the batter on both sides before adding to the skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes, flipping midway through, until golden brown.
  • To make the cream sauce, combine the milk, heavy cream, vanilla pulp, sugar and egg yolks in a saucepan. Whisking constantly, bring the mixture to a low simmer and allow it to thicken slightly.
  • Strain the mixture through a mesh sieve and set aside to cool.
  • Serve the French toast stacked and topped with sauce. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon and nutmeg, if desired.
