Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 6-ounce containers blackberries (about 2 cups)
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 large eggs
2 cups half-and-half
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt
1 13-ounce loaf challah bread, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Pure maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Stack two 12-inch-long pieces of heavy-duty foil. Toss the blackberries, 2 tablespoons sugar and the butter on the foil. Bring the short ends of the foil together and fold to seal, then fold in the sides and seal. Grill until the fruit is bubbling and the juices are syrupy, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer the berries to a bowl.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, half-and-half, the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar, the vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and a pinch of salt in a bowl until well combined. Put the challah in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Pour the egg mixture on top and let soak, turning to coat, 1 to 2 minutes. Thread onto 6 skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 20 minutes first). Grill, turning, until well marked, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a platter and dust with confectioners' sugar. Drizzle with maple syrup and serve with the blackberry sauce.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Four 1 1/2-inch-thick slices French bread
1 cup marshmallow creme
1 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup half-and-half
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 large eggs
Nonstick cooking spray, for the grill pan
12 strawberries, halved
1 jar caramel, for serving
Bittersweet chocolate, for shaving
Warm maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill pan or grill on medium heat.
  • Make a pocket in each slice of bread and set aside. In a medium bowl, mix together the marshmallow creme and hazelnut spread until smooth, then stir in the chocolate chips. Fill each pocket with some of the spread.
  • Whisk together the half-and-half, honey, cinnamon and eggs in a shallow dish. Dip each bread slice in the batter and set aside.
  • Lightly spray the grill pan with cooking spray. Grill the French toast until well-marked and crisp, being careful not to burn it, 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
  • Meanwhile, place the strawberries cut-side down on the grill pan and grill until slightly cooked, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
  • Transfer the French toast to individual plates, drizzle with caramel, shave over chocolate, top with grilled strawberries and serve alongside the warm syrup.
