I had a cello pack of three frozen pancakes to use up from my freezer. I am *really* pleased with myself for clearing out space and ridding myself of pre-made or purchased bakery products as part of my BYOB (Bake Your Own Bread and Bakery Products) participation for 2009.
I also had an egg.
Hmmm. So I could make a pancake plate with a scrambled egg, or, I could just use the pancakes, dip them in the beaten egg, and prepare them as french toast.
Q: Would it taste like pancakes, french toast, or both?
A: Both! The pancake itself wasn't terribly great (generic brand) but with a homemade leftover pancake, frozen so that it doesn't sop up too much egg and holds firm, it would be quite a nice twist.
NOT ORIGINAL. I MADE THAT UP LIKE 5 YEARS AGO.
ReplyDeleteOh sorry, I didn't know that I couldn't post something I came up with in my kitchen, if you came up with it 5 years ago. I did't know I was following in your wake. I humbly beg your pardon, Oh Great Chef and Queen or King of Good Manners.
ReplyDeleteNice concoction. I have a ton of leftover pancakes from the other day and I've been craving some French Toast... hmm
ReplyDeleteLooks really good! I was curious to see if someone had done this before and I pleasantly satisfied that someone else was pleasantly satisfied by the hybrid. Time to give this a shot then :9
I too googled french toast pancakes to see how they taste and landed here. I am craving french toast, but the only bread I have atm is nutty wheat--that doesn't sound good. But it sounds like pancakes work. Thanks for the write-up!
ReplyDeleteThe first commenter needs to get over themselves ;/.
Yeah, I whipped up some french toast pancakes on my own last weekend after an intense craving for FT but lacking any bread. I even went so far as to rebatter one french toast pancake and fry it up again, then french toasted it a second time...by the time it was about 4 inches thick I had french toasted it 5 times and pancaked it six! And you know, it does get better with each layer!
