How to Make Creme Brulee French Toast

Step 1:

Pour 1 cup of milk into a pan and place over medium heat. Bring it to a simmer.

Step 2:

Make the egg mixture. Separate the yolks from the whites. Place the yolks in a bowl. Sprinkle the sugar, salt, and vanilla.

Place a strainer over the bowl, and sift the cornstarch. Whisk to combine. Gradually pour the hot milk while continuously whisking.

Step 3:

Make the pastry cream. Place a pan over heat over medium-low heat. Using a strainer, pour the egg yolk mixture. Use a whisk to push the remaining milk through the strainer. Keep whisking until it thickens. Once thickened, remove from heat.

Stir in 2 tablespoons of butter to the custard until it melts and is evenly incorporated. Pour it into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap directly over the surface. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Step 4:

Make the french toast mixture. Add egg yolks, sugar, heavy cream, salt, and vanilla essence to a mixing bowl. Whisk to combine. Set it aside.

Step 5:

Cook the french toast. Place a pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, take 6 to 7 slices of thick bread and dip them into the french toast mixture. Soak each slice for 30 seconds on each slice. Cook one slice at a time for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a serving plate.

Step 6:

Take the pastry cream out of the refrigerator and whisk to smoothen. Spread a generous amount on each slice of french toast. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of sugar, then use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar or broil on high heat. Decorate with strawberry slices.
