Follow The Directions

01

Step

Spread 1 tablespoon peanut butter and 1 tablespoon jam evenly onto one side of 6 bread slices. Top each with another bread slice to form 6 delightful PBJ sandwiches. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a mixing bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, sugar, raspberry liqueur (if using), and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined, creating a luscious custard. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are thoroughly saturated. Allow the sandwiches to soak for a few seconds on each side to absorb the flavors. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the soaked sandwiches into the skillet, working in batches to avoid overcrowding. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Cook the sandwiches until golden brown and beautifully caramelized, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Flip gently and repeat on the other side. (8-10 minutes)

06

Step

Remove the cooked PBJ French Toast from the skillet and place on a wire rack to drain excess oil. Serve immediately and enjoy the symphony of flavors!

For an extra touch of elegance, dust the finished French toast with powdered sugar or drizzle with maple syrup.
Feel free to experiment with different types of bread, such as brioche or sourdough, to achieve your desired texture and flavor profile.
If you don't have raspberry liqueur on hand, you can substitute it with a splash of orange juice or leave it out entirely.
To prevent the French toast from becoming soggy, avoid soaking the sandwiches for too long in the egg mixture.
Make sure the skillet is hot enough before adding the sandwiches to ensure proper browning and prevent sticking.
