Lorilyns Deep Fried Stuffed French Toast Recipes

Steps:

• In stand up mixer or in small bowl, combine cream cheese, almond extract and powdered sugar until fluffy.
• Fit a cake decorating bag with a large tip (star or round) and fill with cream cheese mixture. Set aside.
• Using a serrated bread knife, slice each piece of Texas Toast into half on the diagonal.
• Along the newly cut diagonal edge, use the tip of the knife to gently make a one inch slice into the center of the bread, making sure the slice runs parallel to the top and bottom of the bread.
• Insert the decorator tip into the opening & squeeze out about a teaspoon or so of filling. With a thumb & finger, gently pinch the opening to close it back up & cover the filling. (This could also be done with a ziplock baggie with a corner cut off, although not quite as easily.).
• In mixer or another medium bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder and salt.
• Beat in milk and eggs until batter is smooth. Pour into deep wide bowl or into a pie plate, for dipping.
• Pre-heat deep fryer or griddle (about 350°) and when ready dip filled slices of bread into batter, turn once and place into fryer basket. (Mine will hold two slices at a time.)
• Fry 2 minutes or until lightly browned & crispy looking then turn each slice over with a pair of tongs and fry the other side for 2 minutes or until done.
• Remove with tongs to paper towel lined plate to drain. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.
• Repeat with the rest of the slices.
• Serve immediately (careful - filling is hot) with your choice of syrups, jams or jellies.

Steps:

• Mix dry ingredients first,then add Milk and Eggs.
• Beat all ingredients well.
• Cut Bread in half.
• Dip Bread into batter and fry in 1/2 inch oil ultil light brown.
• My personal preference is using Hawaian Bread in lieu of regular white Bread, really sweet, but has a great flavor, a very nice change from the same ol same ol. I also love to sprinkle cinnamon on the dipped Bread just before frying, my family loves cinnamon on our French Toast.
• You could also sprinkle some Powdered sugar on top when ready to serve.

Steps:

• Beat the eggs, sugar, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Whisk in the milk, followed by the flour; whisk until smooth.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Soak the bread slices in the egg mixture until the egg has penetrated through to the center of the bread. Wipe off the excess egg. Cook in the deep-fryer several pieces at a time to avoid overcrowding. Cook until golden brown on both sides and no longer soggy in the center, about 4 minutes. Drain the French toast on a paper towel-lined plate before serving.

Steps:

• Mix the flour and the baking powder together.
• Add the eggs and mix until it a smooth paste.
• Add milk gradually until it reaches the consistency of pancake batter.
• Add vanilla and cinnamon.
• Heat a frying pan with 1/2" of oil over medium heat.
• Dip pieces of bread into the batter.
• Gently place the bread into the oil, fry until golden on each side.
• Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
• Serve with warm syrup and butter.
• I use Ming Tsai's 8-Spice Powder instead of cinnamon, it's got cinnamon, allspice, anise, cardamom, ginger, fennel, clove and cumin in it.
• I got mine at Target, it adds a very exotic flavor.
