KYTX CBS 19 VIDEO
Ingredients
1 panettone
5 eggs
2 cups milk
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup cherry jam
Directions
Slice 1-inch thick slices of the panettone from top to bottom. Cut each slice in half. In a 9 x 13 baking dish whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla and cinnamon. Melt the butter in a cast iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Dip both sides of the panettone slices in the egg mixture and place in the skillet. Cook until brown on one side for about a minute and then flip with a spatula. Brown the other side and then remove to a baking sheet. Place in a 200 degree oven to keep warm until ready to serve.
In a saucepan over low heat combine the syrup and cherry jam. Stir until mixture is warmed and the jam has melted and combined with the syrup. Serve the syrup warm at the table along with the French toast. Makes eight to 10 servings.
