Oreo French Toast
A rich, indulgent dish, Oreo French toast is like dessert for breakfast. Thick slices of brioche are covered in Oreo dust before being fried in butter, then topped with a mascarpone whipped cream and crushed Oreos. It has the right amount of sweetness and richness, and tastes like a really luscious serving of Oreos and milk.
Ingredients
- 8 slices brioche cut into ½ inch slices, preferably stale
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- ½ cup mascarpone
- 2 to 4 tbsp butter
- 16 to 18 Oreos
Instructions
- Place 8-9 Oreos in a food processor and pulse until crumbled and dust-like. Alternatively, place 8-9 Oreos in a plastic bag and smash with a rolling pin until crumbled and dust like.
- Whisk together 1 cup whole milk and 3 large eggs until eggs are fully combined with the milk. Whisk in the Oreo dust.
- Place custard with Oreo dust in a shallow baking dish and soak slices of brioche for 4-5 minutes per side, making sure to coat each side with Oreo dust that may have sunk to the bottom.
- Heat 1-2 tablespoons of butter in a non-stick skillet on medium heat and fry the brioche for 4-5 minutes per side.
- Place 8-9 Oreos in a plastic bag and smash a few times with a rolling pin until large pieces are formed.
