I love French toast and buns. Seeing that they can be merged to create sticky bun french toast made me squeal with delight. This recipe by the delightful Anna Olson is delicious.
To make this you will need the following ingredients;
- 3 Tbsp soft (spreadable) cream cheese
- 2 tsp maple syrup, plus extra for topping
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon
- 2 day-old cinnamon sticky buns
- ¼ cup of chocolate chips
- butter or vegetable oil (or both), for cooking
- 1 egg
- ½ cup 2% milk
Follow these steps to create this wondrous breakfast:
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- Beat the cream cheese with the 2 tsp of maple syrup and cinnamon until smooth. Trim the top and bottom off of each of the sticky buns so that they are about 2-inches tall, and slice the sticky bun almost in half horizontally, but not cutting all the way through. Spread the cream cheese inside each cut and sprinkle with chocolate chips.
- Heat an oven-proof skillet on medium and lightly grease with butter and/or oil. Whisk the egg and milk together and dip the stuffed sticky buns into the egg mixture on both sides. Cook the French toast for about 4 minutes on each side. After flipping the French toast over, place it in the oven and bake for 5-8 minutes, until the chocolate in the centre has melted. Serve immediately with maple syrup or for a more decadent treat, serve with a scoop of ice cream and a drizzle of maple syrup.
Your delicious sticky bun french toast is ready. It can be served alone, or with fruit.
