I am a sucker for French toast. I order it almost every time we go out to breakfast. When I was in Seaside, Florida I had the French toast at Pickle’s and it was SO good. I complimented the owner, Heavenly, on her fabulous French toast and she shared her secret. She uses ice cream to make the French toast. No wonder it was so good! Such a genius idea! When I got home, I told Josh we needed to make French toast with ice cream. He was game! So we made Ice Cream French Toast and it is now our favorite French toast recipe! You’ve gotta try it!
Since July is National Ice Cream Month, I thought it would be appropriate to share our Ice Cream French Toast recipe with you all! The more ice cream the merrier!
So the secret is to use melted vanilla ice cream as the French toast base…instead of milk or heavy cream. Again, genius idea! I don’t know why I never thought of using ice cream before! Make sure you use a really good vanilla ice cream to get the best results!
We added a little vanilla and cinnamon to our ice cream and egg mixture. We dunked Texas Toast into the mixture and cooked the bread to perfection! We ended up with the BEST French toast.
We topped the French toast with maple syrup, fresh berries, and a dusting of powdered sugar. We also added a scoop of vanilla ice cream because why not? It is ice cream month! If you are looking for the BEST French toast recipe, look no further, you’ve found it! This Ice Cream French Toast is pure perfection! I’ve eaten a lot of French toast in my lifetime and I am seriously smitten with this recipe! More French Toast Recipes:
