Equipment

Ingredients

Oreo French Toast

  • 3 large eggs
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 10 Oreos, crushed
  • 6 slices bread Brioche or Challah preferred
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, for frying

Cream Cheese Glaze (optional)

  • 2 ounces cream cheese
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons milk cows or unsweetened non-dairy

Instructions

Oreo French Toast

  • Crack your eggs into a shallow bowl and add the milk and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and set aside.
    3 large eggs, ¼ cup milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Crush your Oreos (with a mortar and pestle or by adding them to a bag and crushing with a rolling pin) and add them to a second shallow bowl. Ideally, you will have some Oreos crushed into fine dust with some larger chunks remaining.
    10 Oreos, crushed
  • Add about 2 tablespoons of butter to a large frying pan and get it hot over medium heat.
    4 tablespoons unsalted butter, for frying
  • Working quickly, dip one slice of bread at a time in the egg wash, coating both sides, and then move it to your bowl with crushed Oreo. You may have to use your hands to press in the larger chunks to get an outer Oreo crust. Make sure to cover both sides.
    6 slices bread
  • Then, transfer the coated bread to your hot pan, frying for about 3 minutes on each side. Repeat for all 6 slices of bread, adding butter to the pan as needed.
  • Rest French toast to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a reusable baking mat and keep warm in the oven at 200°F until ready to serve.

Cream Cheese Glaze (Optional)

  • Add cream cheese to a mixing bowl and use a hand mixer on high to whip cream cheese until smooth (about 1 minute).
    2 ounces cream cheese
  • Add the powdered sugar and whip again until completely integrated.
    ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • Slowly add milk, about 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking in between. Once the glaze starts to easily fall off the whisk, stop adding the milk. Please note: you may not need all 3 tablespoons!
    3 tablespoons milk
  • Serve over warm Oreo French Toast and enjoy!

Notes

  • Depending on the size of your eggs, there will be enough egg wash for 4-6 slices of French toast.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan—it will make your French toast harder to flip.
  • It’s best just to dip the bread in the egg wash, rather than letting it soak. This will help you avoid soggy French toast.
