Stuffed French Toast Melt Recipes

Steps:

• Blend the ricotta cheese, sugar, orange and lemon zest in a medium mixing bowl. Cover and set aside. Beat eggs and milk in a wide flat bowl. In a large saucepan or griddle, melt margarine on medium heat. Dip each piece of bread into the egg mixture briefly on each side. Place in saucepan and cook until browned on each side. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture onto 5 pieces of French toast and spread. Place remaining 5 pieces of toast on top of mixture.

Steps:

• Spread 4 slices oatnut bread on one side with cream cheese. Spread remaining 4 slices on one side with raspberry jam. Press cream cheese slices together with jam slices, forming sandwiches.
• In a medium, shallow bowl, beat together the eggs, milk and almond extract.
• Melt butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium high heat. Dip sandwiches in the egg mixture to coat. Place in the skillet, and cook on both sides until golden brown.

Steps:

• Batter:
• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, mixing well until incorporated. Keep refrigerated until ready to use.
• Filling:
• Fold all ingredients together in a bowl until well incorporated but not completely smooth.
• Syrup:
• Combine all ingredients in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir until sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil and let reduce by 1/3.
• French Toast:
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a large saute pan and then add butter. Dredge the bread in the batter and place in the pan. Cook until golden brown on both sides, approximately 2 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool. Divide filling between 2 pieces of the bread top with the remaining 2 pieces of bread. Transfer French toast to oven and bake for 8 minutes.
• Cut each French toast in half and serve with the cinnamon syrup and, if desired, a large scoop of vanilla ice cream and fresh berries.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a heavy skillet.
• Lightly whisk eggs with milk.
• Spread Nutella between two slices of bread.
• Dip in egg-milk mixture briefly to coat.
• Slowly brown each side of the sandwich.
• Serve with whipped cream and strawberries or drizzle with maple syrup.

Steps:

• Microwave the cream cheese (in a large bowl) on high just until softened, 5 to 10 seconds. Check it. You'd be surprised how microwave ovens vary.
• Stir in 2 tablespoons of the sugar and all of the cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir till smooth. Wrap tightly and chill for about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, adjust oven rack to the middle position. Heat oven to 200 degrees. Arrange the bread on a rack set over a rimmed baking sleet. Bake it until slightly dry, about 15 minutes. (I would say "or stale bread", but if you're familiar with their exhaustive testing approach, it's best to just trust them and do this step.).
• Spread the cream cheese evenly over 4 pieces of bread. Leave a 1/2-inch at the edges. ( If you do not leave the border clear, it will just come out while cooking and be wasted.) Lightly press the rest of the slices over the top to make 4 sturdy sandwiches.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter. Whisk it with the milk, egg, vanilla, salt and the remaining 2 T. of sugar. Slowly whisk in the flour until smooth. Pour the batter into a large shallow dish.
• Slide 2 sandwiches into the batter and soak both sides, about 1 minute per side. Meanwhile, melt 1 more T. of the butter in a 12-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat until it begins to brown, swirling to coat the pan.
• Remove the bread from the batter. Let excess batter drip back in the dish. Lay two sandwiches in the hot skillet. Cook until golden brown on both sides, about 2.5 minutes per side. Transfer to a wire rack and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the other two sandwiches.

Steps:

• Heat medium nonstick skillet on medium heat. Meanwhile, whisk eggs and 1 Tbsp. syrup in pie plate until blended.
• Fill bread slices with Singles and bacon to make 2 sandwiches. Dip, 1 at a time, in egg mixture, turning to evenly moisten both sides of each sandwich.
• Cook 2 min. on each side or until Singles are melted and sandwiches are golden brown on both sides.
• Cut each sandwich into 3 sticks. Serve as dippers with remaining syrup.
