Peanut Butter and Jelly French Toast image

What's better than your classic peanut butter and jelly sandwich? It's this peanut butter and jelly French toast. Toasted crispy on the outside, warm peanut butter just oozes from the center. A homemade strawberry syrup complements the French toast adding a wonderfully fresh and sweet flavor. What a yummy breakfast... or...

Number Of Ingredients 12

FRENCH TOAST
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 c milk
2 dash(es) cinnamon
2 dash(es) nutmeg
1 scant pinch of salt
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
8 slice whole wheat bread
creamy peanut butter
STRAWBERRY SYRUP
1 pt whole strawberries
2 Tbsp maple syrup

Steps:

  • 1. Mix together all your French toast ingredients (except the bread and peanut butter).
  • 2. On four slices of wheat bread, spread peanut butter to desired thickness. Place the second slice of bread on top and trim off the crusts. Pinch all four sides together to form a "pillow" so peanut butter doesn't leak out while toasting.
  • 3. Dip into egg mixture on both sides, making sure bread absorbs it. Then place onto a preheated buttered frying pan. Toast on both sides, and repeat with the other sandwiches.
  • 4. Reserving about 6 or 7 of the strawberries. Hull, wash, and place the rest of the strawberries in a blender with the maple syrup. Blend on high until all the berries are pureed.
  • 5. With the remainder of the strawberries, hull and slice (I use an egg slicer for uniform slices) then add the pureed strawberries.
  • 6. To serve, place two of the peanut butter sandwiches on a plate. Top with strawberry syrup and dust lightly with powdered sugar (if desired). Bon Appetit!
