Griddle to Golden Perfection
Repeat and Serve
Add a teaspoon of orange zest or a pinch of ground cardamom to the custard mixture for a bright, aromatic twist.
Omit the sugar, vanilla, and nutmeg. Instead, add 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, 1 tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese, and a pinch of garlic powder to the custard. Serve with a fried egg and avocado.
Spread a thin layer of cream cheese and your favorite jam between two thin slices of sourdough before dipping the 'sandwich' in the custard and cooking as directed.
After soaking, press one side of the bread into a plate of finely chopped pecans or almonds before placing it in the skillet for a crunchy texture.
The eggs in the custard provide high-quality, complete protein, which is essential for muscle repair, immune function, and overall body maintenance.
Sourdough bread is made through a fermentation process that creates prebiotics, which help feed the beneficial bacteria in your gut. This can make it easier to digest compared to standard white bread.
This dish offers a range of nutrients, including calcium and Vitamin D from fortified milk for bone health, and B vitamins from the eggs and bread, which are crucial for energy metabolism.
A serving of two slices of Sourdough French Toast, without toppings, contains approximately 495 calories. This can vary based on the thickness of the bread and the amount of butter used.
It can be part of a balanced diet. Sourdough bread is often easier to digest than other breads due to its fermentation process. However, the dish is typically high in carbohydrates, sugar, and fat from the butter. To make it healthier, use less sugar, cook with minimal butter, and top with fresh fruit instead of syrup.
Sogginess is usually caused by two things: using bread that is too fresh, or over-soaking the slices. Fresh bread is too moist and can't absorb the custard properly. Day-old, slightly stale bread is ideal. Soak each slice for only 15-20 seconds per side.
Yes, you can easily make this dairy-free. Substitute the whole milk with a plant-based milk like almond, soy, or oat milk, and use a dairy-free butter substitute or coconut oil for cooking.
Absolutely. You can whisk together the custard ingredients, cover the dish, and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Just give it a quick whisk again before you start soaking the bread.
