Topping Ideas


Instructions

  • Combine the berries, honey, and triple sec in a medium bowl. Let them macerate for about an hour. If you want a lot of extra berries for the top, double the recipe or you can use fresh berries on top.
  • Once the berries have macerated, beat the eggs, vanilla, milk, flour, and salt together in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, using a hand or stand mixer, whip the Mascarpone cheese, sugar, and heavy cream together until fluffy.
  • Cut French bread into approximately 12, 1 1/2-inch thick slices, then slice them in the center but don't cut all the way through.
  • Use a rubber spatula or knife to spread some of the cheese mixture one of the inner slit of each slice of bread.
  • Using a spoon, scoop the macerated berries holding them to the side of the bowl to let them drain a little, then scoop them into the french toast slit on top of the cheese mixture.
  • Quickly dip each side of the bread in the egg mixture and place it in a preheated and buttered skillet or griddle. Repeat this step for the rest of the french toast.
  • Cook over medium-low heat until golden on both sides and filling becomes melty. Make sure to add butter as needed.
  • Spoon some of the macerated berries and juice over the top and drizzle with maple syrup.

Notes

  • Nutritional Information is based on 2 slices per serving and does not include toppings.
  • Feel free to use any combination of berries as long as the total amount of berries equals 2 cups.
  • Triple Sec may be omitted if you would prefer to keep this recipe alcohol-free or don't have any on hand. Instead, you can use lemon or orange juice.
