My family loves Challah french toast! I remember first having Challah at my grandma's house back in the midwest where I am from. It was so soft and delicious, I was hooked! I think Challah makes the best french toast, as it soaks up the egg.
Ingredients:
6 large organic eggs
1 1/2 cups of heavy cream, I use Clover organic whipping cream
2 tablespoons of vanilla extract without alcohol
1 large loaf of challah, sliced in at least 6 pieces
4 tablespoons of Organic Valley ghee (I get mine at Safeway) or unsalted butter
confectioner's or white powdered sugar for dusting over the challah
organic warmed maple syrup
optional: strawberries or other fruit garnish
Directions:
1. Whisk together eggs, heavy cream, vanilla in a medium bowl
2. Place challah bread in a shallow baking dish to hold bread slices in a single layer, gradually pour over egg mixture over bread. Also, the egg mixture can be poured over individual slices of bread on a plate. Soak up to 5 minutes each side, depending on your time available.
3. Heat butter or ghee in a cast iron skillet, let sizzle, then fry challah bread slices until golden brown on each side.
4. After frying the french toast, I place in a glass casserole container in a warmed oven.
5. Heat maple syrup
6. When french toast is completed, sprinkle with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh fruit.
