nutella French Toast

Nutella is a brand of sweetened hazelnut cocoa spread. Prepared by the Italian company Ferrero and introduced in 1964. The owner of the company Pietro Ferrero lived in a small Italian town where the hazelnuts were raised.  It would not be Pietro to sell the spread he made but his son Michele who would market the spread through Europe. Through the move the spread was changed a bit and the name Nutella was created. On April 20, 1964 the first jar of Nutella was marketed. 


I am sharing a recipe that uses nutella and taste great with it as well. It is a recipe for breakfast but we have served it for breakfast for supper before as well. 



Peanut Butter French Toast

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

Sixteen 1/2-inch-thick slices brioche

4 large eggs, beaten

1/4 cup heavy cream

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

4 cups cornflakes, finely crushed

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

4 cups mixed berries

Maple syrup, for serving


Preheat the oven to 250°. Line a large baking sheet with wax paper. Spread 1 tablespoon of the peanut butter on each of 8 slices of brioche and cover with the remaining 8 slices, making sandwiches. In a pie plate, beat the eggs with the cream and vanilla. In another pie plate, spread the crushed cornflakes. Lightly soak the sandwiches in the egg mixture, then dredge in the cornflakes, pressing to help them adhere. Transfer the sandwiches to the baking sheet. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a very large skillet. Add 4 of the sandwiches and cook over moderate heat until golden and crisp on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the half-cooked sandwiches to the baking sheet. Add another tablespoon of the butter to the skillet, flip the sandwiches back into the skillet and cook until golden and crisp on the bottom, about 2 minutes longer. Transfer to the baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Wipe out the skillet and cook the remaining sandwiches. Transfer the French toast to plates and dust with confectioners' sugar. Top with the berries and drizzle with maple syrup.
