I had a version of this french toast at the Morning Glory Cafe in Ashland. I wish we could eat there everyday but we cant so I needed to make my own version of it! Ingredients:
1/2 cup ricotta cheese |
1 teaspoon lemon zest |
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice |
1-1/2 teaspoons powdered sugar |
3 large eggs, plus 2 large yolks |
1/2 cup heavy cream |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
8 slices french toast bread (texas toast bread) |
Directions:
1. Combine ricotta cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice and sugar in mixing bowl. Whisk together eggs, cream, salt, and vanilla in another bowl. Pour egg mixture into wide shallow bowl. Whisk yolks in bowl. Lay bread onto clean work surface. Paint inside edges of each slice with egg yolks. Place 2 tablespoons ricotta mixture in
2. center of slices. Cover with remaining slices, yolk-coated edges down, gently pressing slices together. Dip slices into egg and cream mixture until saturated.
3. Heat griddle over medium heat. Butter, or coat with cooking spray. Cook slices until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
4. Serve with strawberry or raspberry puree, and whipped lemon butter, I've also posted that recipe
