Ingredients

for 6 servings

  • 5 large eggs
  • ½ cup heavy cream (120 mL)
  • ½ teaspoon dried parsley
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • kosher salt, to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 6 slices challah bread, 1-in (2.54-cm) thick
  • unsalted butter, for cooking

Toppings (Optional)

  • Roasted bell pepper-flavored whipped cream cheese, such as Philadelphia brand
  • quartered cherry tomato, quartered
  • chopped, cooked bacon
  • chopped fresh chive
  • hot honey

Preparation

  1. In a deep cake pan or pie dish, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  2. Dip each slice of challah in the egg mixture for about 30 seconds per side, until the bread absorbs the egg, but is not soggy.
  3. Melt a pat of butter in a large pan over medium heat. Working in batches if needed, cook the French toast until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side.
  4. Serve immediately with your toppings of choice, such as roasted red pepper cream cheese, cherry tomatoes, bacon, chives, and a drizzle of hot honey.
  5. Enjoy!
