According to the Sun-Maid Raisin Bread's Bring Back Brunch online survey* 80% said they would consider a festive brunch in place of the holiday season dinner. This is so they can enjoy time leisurely with their family, friends and guests. To help us get started and gather around the kitchen and table, Sun-Maid has developed four signature brunch recipes; Starry morning raisin french toast, Berry merry breakfast cups, Leftover makeover french toast, and Rise and shine raisin coffee bake.
I made the Starry Morning Raisin French Toast.
12 slices Sun-Maid raisin cinnamon swirl bread
3 eggs
2/3 cup milk
1 tbsp vanilla (I didn't use)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/3 cup jam
pinch salt
Whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon and salt in a shallow dish. Spread the jam on on 6 slices of bread and top with the other slices. Cut each sandwich into a festive shape with a large cookie cutter and reserve the remaining bread for another use.
Dip each shape into the egg mixture on both sides and cook for 3 minutes per side in a buttered non-stick skillet on low medium heat until it is golden. Dust with icing sugar and serve with maple syrup.
