Nothing is better than breakfast, unless you are talking about brunch; and nothing is better than French Toast, unless you are talking about stuffed French Toast. Amirite? Yes, I am.
Since it’s Wednesday, there is no better time than now to start planning your weekend brunch, and we are here to help. Well… at least help with one item.
No basic brunches here. First item on your brunch menu should be our Ginger Pear Mascarpone Stuffed French Toast. It is perfect once drizzled with pure maple syrup and powdered sugar.
Sadly though brunch may not always fit into your schedule, but do not fret, this is a recipe you can use for breakfast too. Heck, we would probably also make it for dinner! Because we all know there is nothing wrong with breakfast for dinner. Yum!
12 Franz Texas Toast Bread (or any thick cut bread) Ginger Pear Mascarpone Filling Egg Mixture Assembly of Stuffed French Toast Serve with pure maple syrup and powdered sugar! If you are feeling like your French Toast needs a little something something, you can add 1/2 cup of Gorgonzola to the Ginger Pear Mascarpone filling. Now, you may be asking yourself, "Gorgonzola in French Toast? Who did they let loose in the kitchen?" *CoughBritCough* ... trust us though, it is truly amazing. With that being said, we also feel we need to warn you. Be careful not to add TOO much Gorgonzola! This cheese can become very prominent and can overpower the other flavors.
