Peach Stuffed French Toast for Father’s Day

For Father’s Day, I made Peach Stuffed French Toast as a special treat for my better half. He took one bite of it and said, “Yea, you can make this for me again.”  And I will.

Don’t be intimated by the list of ingredients. I just broke it up to make it more organized. This is easy to make folks and really super impressive to those who don’t know how easy it is to make!

Peach Stuffed French Toast

Ingredients for the French Toast:

1 loaf of Italian bread, cut into 1/2″ - 3/4 ” slices.
1/2 cup of cream
2 tablespoons of honey
4 eggs
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Ingredients for the Peach Stuffing:

2 cups of diced peaches
2-3 tablespoons of honey
1 teaspoon of cinnamon

1/4 cup hot water–not boiling water

Ingredients for the Creamy Filling:

8 ounces of creme fraiche
lemon zest to taste
2 1/2 tablespoons of sugar
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon

How to make:

1. Put honey in a mixing bowl add the hot water. Do not use boiling water. Stir until blended and then add the diced peaches. Set aside for a little bit,  you want the peaches to soften a little bit and the syrup to thicken.

2. Whip the creme fraiche,  lemon zest , sugar & vanilla together. Then add cinnamon and whip so it doesn’t clump. Place the creme fraiche mixture back in the fridge for at least 1/2 hour or until it hardens again.

3. Whip the eggs and cream together. Add honey and whip again. Then add the cinnamon. Pour into a shallow dish and dredge your bread slices on both sides. Let the bread get soppy.  Place in a skillet and cook until browned on both sides.

4. To assemble…Place one slice of French Toast on a plate, spread on some of the creme fraiche filling, spoon some of the peaches over that and top with another slice of French Toast. Top with some more peaches and homemade whipped cream.

Don’t eat too much!
