Good morning and welcome back to my blog! I have the perfect weekend brunch recipe for you and best of all its super easy to make! It’s my Peach Cobbler French Toast made with canned peaches and thick texas toast. Everyone loves peach cobbler and this recipe will be a hit….trust me!
You guys no I’m not big on a lot of yapping but I do want to go over a few notes with you.
Peaches: I used canned peaches but feel free to use fresh if you have them. You’ll just need to add more water to make up for the syrup. I would do an additional 1/4 of water and another 2-3 tbsp of sugar.
Graham Topping: The best part of cobbler is the crust so I created a small graham crumble that goes on top of everything. You could also just buy a graham cracker crust and crumble it up to save time. (My sister does this when she makes this recipe)
Bread: When making french toast I only use the thick texas toast slices…I don’t know it just does something to me lol. You can totally use any bread you like. For photo purposes I stacked the bread but to serve I usually cut the french toast diagonally and fan the slices out.
Whip Cream: I just buy store-bought whip cream but if you’re feeling fancy feel free to make your own.
Ok, lets get cooking! Recipe is below 🙂
Peach Cobbler French Toast
Notes
**I keep my french toast warming in the oven until I’m ready to serve breakfast. I use the warming setting or 170 F.**
Sub milk for heavy cream if necessary
Give peaches a rough chop if you like
