French Toast Waffles
A fusion of French toast and waffles, featuring thick slices of bread soaked in a spiced custard batter and cooked to golden perfection in a waffle iron.
Ingredients
- 4 thick slices of bread brioche, challah, or Texas toast work best
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk or half-and-half for a richer flavor
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg optional
- 2 tbsp sugar optional, for a sweeter batter
- Butter or nonstick spray for the waffle iron
- Maple syrup powdered sugar, or fresh fruit for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter:
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar (if using).
- Soak the Bread:
- Dip each slice of bread into the batter, ensuring both sides are well coated. Let the bread soak for 20-30 seconds per side.
- Cook the French Toast Waffles:
- Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with butter or nonstick spray.
- Place a soaked slice of bread in the center of the waffle iron and close the lid. Cook according to your waffle iron's instructions, about 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
- Repeat with the remaining slices of bread.
- Serve:
- Serve the French Toast Waffles warm, topped with maple syrup, powdered sugar, fresh berries, or whipped cream.
Notes
- Bread Tip: Stale bread works best as it absorbs the batter without falling apart.
- Make Ahead: Cooked waffles can be frozen and reheated in a toaster or oven for a quick breakfast.
- Customization: Add a pinch of cocoa powder to the batter for a chocolaty twist, or mix in orange zest for a citrusy flavor.
- Toppings: Experiment with different toppings like caramel sauce, nuts, or even a dollop of Greek yogurt.
