National Strawberries and Cream Day is May 21. We think you’ll love this tasty French Toast, contributed by the Old Parkdale Inn Bed and Breakfast in the Hood River Valley
Strawberry Croissant French Toast
4 large day-old croissants
¾ c. milk
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ teaspoon cinnamon
2 Tablespoons butter
Powdered Sugar
Sweetened Whipped Cream
Fresh Strawberries
Slice croissants in half lengthwise. Whisk together milk, eggs, vanilla, and cinnamon. Pour into a shallow dish. Dip croissant halves into eggs mixture, coating well.
Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add four croissant halves and cook about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Repeat procedure with remaining butter and croissant halves. Spoon strawberries between the layers and some on top. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, top with sweetened whipped cream if desired. Who wouldn’t want sweetened whipped cream and maybe a splash of maple syrup!
