DULCE DE LECHE FRENCH TOAST BAKE

Dulce de Leche French Toast Bake image

I'm a big fan of dulce de leche and am always looking for a way to incorporate it into sweet dishes. I decided to make a breakfast dish that was reminiscent of a luscious dulce de leche cheesecake. The pecan topping takes the dish over the top without making it overly sweet. No maple syrup is needed for this French toast casserole!-Anna Stigger, Katy, Texas

French Toast With Dulce De Leche image

This is an amazing spin on french toast that can either be a rich and tasty breakfast or an indulgent dessert. This requires overnight preparation, so the time does not reflect that. Oh, but these are so worth it! The credit for this recipe goes to Marc Murphy. Yet another wonder pulled from the pages of one of my many newlywed magazines. MMMmmmm...

TRES LECHES FRENCH TOAST

Tres Leches French Toast image

Inspired by Mexican tres leches cake, my French toast gets richness from sweetened condensed, evaporated and whole milks. A trio of spices -- cinnamon, cardamom and clove -- gives this subtly sweet dish a flavor that's reminiscent of cinnamon buns.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

4 large eggs
12 ounces evaporated milk
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
One 16- to 18-ounce loaf challah or brioche, cut into 1-inch-thick slices
Unsalted butter, for cooking
Canola oil, for cooking
Warm maple syrup, for serving
Raspberry or strawberry preserves, for serving

Steps:

In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with the three milks, the cinnamon, vanilla, salt, cardamom and cloves. Pour into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
Preheat a very large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium heat, then melt 1 tablespoon butter in 1 tablespoon canola oil.
In batches, add the slices of challah to the milk mixture, turning a few times to soak up some of the mixture. When the butter is melted, add the coated challah and cook until golden on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the second side, 2 to 3 minutes more. Repeat with the remaining challah, adding butter and oil as needed. Serve with warm maple syrup and raspberry or strawberry preserves.
