FABULOUS FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• ABOUT THE RECIPE: My mother-in-law has a wonderful recipe for baked French toast. I decided to veganize it so I could make it for my family and friends (and myself!). I adore the classic taste of this Fabulous French Toast Bake. Makes 4 servings
• INGREDIENTS: 3/4 block (10 to 12 ounces) firm or extra-firm regular tofu, drained 1 medium ripe banana 1/2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more for sprinkling 1 cup nondairy milk 8 to 10 slices country-style or Tuscan-style bread 3 tablespoons dark brown sugar 2 1/2 tablespoons vegan margarine, plus more as needed Maple syrup or fruit preserves, for serving
• INSTRUCTIONS: Liberally coat an 11 by 17-inch rimmed baking pan with vegan margarine. Put the tofu, banana, olive oil, vanilla, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and nondairy milk into a blender and process until smooth.
• Arrange the bread slices in a single layer on the prepared pan. Poke multiple holes in each slice with a dinner fork. (This will allow the banana/tofu mixture to be more readily absorbed into the bread.) Pour the banana/tofu mixture over the bread and gently push the mixture into the bread slices, using a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, in order for the banana/tofu mixture to permeate the bread (see note).
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Remove the bread from the refrigerator. Dust the bread slices with about 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon. Tent with foil, and bake for 20 minutes (see note), or until the top of the bread is starting to become golden.
• While the toast cooks, put the vegan margarine and brown sugar in a small bowl and mix together with a fork until well combined.
• Remove the toast from the oven and put it on a wire rack. Cut the slices apart (they may have baked together at this point) and flip them over. Dot the top of each piece of toast with the vegan margarine/brown sugar mixture. (Add a bit more margarine, if needed). Bake uncovered for 10 to 20 minutes more, checking often, or until browned and crisp on top (see note). Serve topped with maple syrup or your favorite fruit preserves, if desired.
• Chef's Note: You may prepare the casserole the night before, tent with foil and refrigerate overnight. Proceed with baking as directed. Chef's Note: The length of baking time will vary, depending on the thickness of your bread.

FRENCH TOAST "JUBLIEE"

Steps:

• For the jubilee sauce: Combine the cherries and lemon strips and juice in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook until the mixture has thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, add the rum and return it to the heat to burn off the alcohol, about 5 minutes. Just before serving, swirl in the butter and maple syrup.
• For the French toast: Add the cream, honey, almond extract, cardamom and eggs and yolks to a blender and blend until combined. Transfer to a shallow container and soak the bread in the custard mixture.
• Heat the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat until frothing. Drain off the excess custard from the bread, add the slices to the pan and cook on both sides until golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes a side.
• Serve by placing the French toast on a platter along with the cherry jubilee sauce. Finish with the lemon zest and a dusting of confectioners' sugar.

BUTTER PECAN FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and melt 2 tablespoons of the butter.
• In a large bowl, combine the milk, eggs, 1/4 cup of the brown sugar, the cinnamon, and vanilla. Whisk together until everything's combined and smooth.
• One by one, dunk the slices of bread into the egg mixture and place them on the buttery skillet.
• Fit as many slices in the skillet as you can, cooking them until golden on the first side, about 2 1/2 minutes. Flip to cook them on the other side for about 2 minutes. Remove them to a plate. Add 2 tablespoons of the butter to the skillet and repeat with the rest of the bread slices until they're all cooked.
• To the same skillet, add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter, the remaining 1 cup of brown sugar, and the salt. Stir and cook over medium heat until the butter and sugar are melted and bubbling, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat completely, pour in the bourbon and stir, allowing the fumes to dissipate for about 1 minute. Turn the stove on medium heat and continue to stir and cook for another minute, or until the mixture is starting to thicken. Add the pecans, stir to combine. Keep cooking the sauce, stirring constantly, until the mixture is deep golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Be careful not to cook it too long as it will become chewy, you want a nice caramelly sauce. Turn off the heat.
• Serve two pieces of French toast with a little butter. Sift over some powdered sugar.
• Spoon on a generous amount of the sauce then top with whipped cream and a sprinkling of cinnamon.
