Ingredients
- 12 slices of bread (brioche or challah work well)
- 8 slices of cooked bacon
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Butter, for cooking
- Maple syrup, for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the bread: Use a round cookie cutter or glass to cut circles out of each slice of bread, making 24 circles total.
- Make the sliders: Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on one side of 12 bread circles. Place a slice of bacon on top of the cream cheese and cover with another bread circle to form a slider. Press gently to secure.
- Prepare the custard: In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, sugar, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Dip the sliders: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of butter. Dip each slider into the egg mixture, allowing the bread to soak up some of the custard, then place it in the skillet.
- Cook the sliders: Cook each slider for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Work in batches, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
- Serve: Transfer the cooked sliders to a serving platter. Drizzle with maple syrup and serve warm.
Enjoy your Bacon Stuffed French Toast Sliders as a delightful and decadent breakfast or brunch option, offering the perfect combination of sweet and savory flavors in every bite.
