Ingredients
This delicious Pear French Toast recipe won‘t disappoint!
Ingredients
- 2 Bartlett pears
- 1 tablespoon butter
- ¹⁄₄ cup brown sugar
- ³⁄₄ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¹⁄₄ teaspoon nutmeg
- 6 slices white bread
- 4 eggs
- 1 ³⁄₄ cups milk
- ¹⁄₄ cup sugar
- 1 ¹⁄₂ teaspoons vanilla
- 8 pieces Werther's Original Soft Crème Caramels, cut in half
Instructions
-
Peel, core, and slice the pears into ¼-inch-thick slices. Heat the butter in a pot until it melts, then add the pears and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes. Turn off the heat, stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
-
Meanwhile, toast the bread slices. Cut them in half corner to corner to make triangles. Butter an 8x8-inch baking dish, then lay the bread triangles in the pan overlapping. Tuck the caramel pieces between the toast.
-
In a bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in the sugar, milk, and vanilla to make a custard. Pour the custard over the bread triangles, then spoon the pears over the top of the bread, spreading them out. Let soak for 30 minutes or cover and refrigerate overnight.
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Bake uncovered for about 30 minutes until the custard is set and doesn’t shimmy when you shake the pan. It will puff up and brown slightly.
