\n

Ingredients<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Red Velvet French Toast:<\/b><\/li>\n
  2. 4 eggs<\/li>\n
  3. 1 cup buttermilk (or 1 cup milk + 1 tablespoon vinegar set aside and allowed to “sour” for 5 minutes)<\/li>\n
  4. 2 tablespoons sugar (or natural granulated sweetener)<\/li>\n
  5. 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract<\/li>\n
  6. 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder<\/li>\n
  7. 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons red food colouring (30 mls | 1oz)<\/li>\n
  8. 8 slices bread, halved (so you end up with 16 bread halves)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n
    1. Vanilla Bean Cheesecake Filling:<\/b><\/li>\n
    2. 8oz (250g) tub reduced fat cream cheese<\/li>\n
    3. 2 tablespoons sugar (or natural granulated sweetener)<\/li>\n
    4. 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste<\/li>\n
    5. Fresh raspberries<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/section>\n
      \n

      Directions<\/h3>\n
      \n
        \n
      1. For French Toast:<\/strong> Whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, sugar, vanilla, food coloring and cocoa in a shallow bowl until smooth and lump free.<\/li>\n
      2. Alternatively, combine these ingredients in a small blender or magic bullet cup; blend until smooth and transfer the egg wash to a large shallow bowl.<\/li>\n
      3. Dip bread slices into egg wash and press lightly a few times to soak through completely. Flip each slice and repeat with each bread until slices all are evenly coated.<\/li>\n
      4. Heat a large nonstick pan\/skillet over low-medium heat and fry the bread in batches of 3 or 4, turning once until just cooked through. Remove and place onto a warmed plate.<\/li>\n
      5. For Cheesecake Filling:<\/strong> While french toast is frying, make your cheesecake filling. Combine the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla paste in a medium sized bowl, and whip until light and fluffy. Spoon 1-2 tablespoons of filling onto 6 toast halves; spread to evenly coat; top with remaining toast halves to create a sandwich. Drizzle with melted chocolate; top with remaining cream (optional); dust with icing\/confectioners sugar and serve with berries.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
