STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM STUFFED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the cream cheese and beat until smooth. Add the jam and a pinch of salt and continue to beat until thoroughly combined. Using a paring knife, make a slit in each bread slice about 2 to 3 inches long and deep; this pocket will hold the filling. Using an offset spatula, divide and stuff the filling equally into the pockets, making sure it's not a big lump. Set aside.
• In a shallow dish, add the eggs, milk, vanilla extract and almond extract. Mix with a fork until combined. Dip the challah into the mixture, turning to coat both sides. Let sit and soak while you heat your butter.
• In a large nonstick skillet, add the butter and heat over medium heat until it begins to foam. Add the challah, allowing any excess egg mixture to drip off, and cook until golden brown and cooked through, flipping once, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Place the French toast on a serving dish. Serve with a drizzle of sweetened condensed milk and garnished with strawberries.
• In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, orange zest and salt and whisk together. In a medium bowl, whisk together the water, orange juice, oil and 2 of the eggs.
• Add the wet to the flour mixture; stir to combine. Knead, either by hand on a floured surface or with a dough hook on medium speed for 7 to 10 minutes, adding more flour as necessary (but resist any urge to add too much!), until you have a smooth and slightly sticky dough.
• Transfer the dough to a large oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature until doubled in size, about 2 hours. (Alternatively, chill the dough in the refrigerator overnight, then let stand at room temperature for 1 hour before shaping.)
• Divide the dough into 4 pieces. Divide each into 3 logs and braid. Place on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spacing them evenly apart. Cover loosely and let rise 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining egg and 1 tablespoon water. Brush the loaves with egg wash and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake until they are golden and have an internal temperature of 190 degrees F; begin checking for doneness at 18 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly and enjoy. (Challah is best eaten within 24 hours. After that it's ok if you toast it or use it for French toast. It also freezes well!)

STUFFED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Batter:
• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, mixing well until incorporated. Keep refrigerated until ready to use.
• Filling:
• Fold all ingredients together in a bowl until well incorporated but not completely smooth.
• Syrup:
• Combine all ingredients in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir until sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil and let reduce by 1/3.
• French Toast:
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a large saute pan and then add butter. Dredge the bread in the batter and place in the pan. Cook until golden brown on both sides, approximately 2 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool. Divide filling between 2 pieces of the bread top with the remaining 2 pieces of bread. Transfer French toast to oven and bake for 8 minutes.
• Cut each French toast in half and serve with the cinnamon syrup and, if desired, a large scoop of vanilla ice cream and fresh berries.

APPLE-STUFFED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Set a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
• Place apples in a saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil; allow to cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Drain apples and toss with white sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
• Melt butter with brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of water in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add walnuts and simmer for 10 minutes. Pour into the prepared baking pan and let cool, about 10 minutes.
• Cover butter mixture with a layer of bread. Spread apple mixture evenly on top.
• Beat eggs, milk, and vanilla extract together in a large mixing bowl. Dip remaining bread slices in egg mixture, then place in a layer over the apple mixture. Pour remaining egg mixture over bread, filling the pan nearly to the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and puffed and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a cookie sheet. Slice and serve.
