Simply Breakfast with Prosecco Mimosa Gelee

wine box1

We meet a lot of great people when we sample our products in various store locations.  Nothing gets us more excited than hearing  our customers tell us how much they are enjoying our gelee.  One customer told us that they especially loved our Prosecco Mimosa gelee on French Toast.  We couldn’t agree more.  So, in honor of that, here’s a recipe for Classic French Toast my family just loves……  (it’s from Martha Stewart).

Ingredients

    • 6 large eggs
    • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream, half-and-half, or milk
    • 2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • Pinch of ground nutmeg
    • Pinch of salt
    • 6 slices (1-inch-thick) bread, preferably day old
    • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
    • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
    • Prosecco Mimosa Wine Gelee for spreading

Directions

  1. Whisk together eggs, cream, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
  2. Place bread in a shallow baking dish large enough to hold bread slices in a single layer. Pour egg mixture over bread; soak 10 minutes. Turn slices over; soak until soaked through, about 10 minutes more.
  3. Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Place a wire rack on a baking sheet, and set aside. Heat 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry half the bread slices until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to wire rack; place in oven while cooking remaining bread. Wipe skillet, and repeat with remaining butter, oil, and bread. Keep in oven until ready to serve. Serve warm with a dollop of Prosecco Mimosa Gelee.
