Highland House

Mariposa, California

Specialty Recipe

Red, White, and Berry French Toast

Ingredients

1 loaf Challah bread (cinnamon raisin if you can find it)

4 ounces cream cheese

4 eggs

1 cup milk

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Butter

Topping:

1/4 cup water

1/2 cup sugar

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

2 cups strawberries, cut in half

1 cup blackberries

1 cup blueberries

Cut Challah into 1/2-inch thick slices and spread half of the pieces with cream cheese. Put two slices together to make a sandwich. Lightly beat eggs, add milk and cinnamon, and beat with a fork. Dip sandwiches and fry in butter on griddle. Top with warm berry compote and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Topping: Make a light sugar syrup by heating the water and sugar together in a saute pan, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Add the lemon juice and berries and cook over medium heat 2 to 3 minutes, stirring gently every so often to coat the berries.

Note: Leftovers are fabulous over ice cream!

Serves: 4
