How to Make Caramelized French Toast With Vanilla Pears Oh My
- Peel, core, and slice 2 ripe pears.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced pears, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, until pears are tender but still hold their shape.
- Remove pears from skillet and set aside on a plate to drain slightly. Pour the pear juices back into the skillet.
- Increase heat to medium-high. Cook the pear juices for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they thicken and become caramelized.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a shallow dish, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup half-and-half, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated. Let soak for about 2 minutes per side.
- Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Place bread slices in the hot skillet, sprinkling 1/2 tablespoon of brown sugar on each side of the bread.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve immediately. Top each slice of French toast with a few caramelized pear slices, a drizzle of the caramel sauce, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
