Caramelised Spiced French Toast with Berry Compote: A Breakfast Worth Waking Up For

There’s something truly special about French toast—soft on the inside, crispy on the outside, and full of comforting flavors. But this Caramelised Spiced French Toast with Berry Compote takes things up a notch, using OMGhee to achieve a golden, caramelised crust while infusing every bite with rich, warming spices. Topped with a tangy berry compote and a dollop of mascarpone, this is the ultimate breakfast indulgence.

The Secret to Perfectly Caramelised French Toast

The magic happens in the pan. Sprinkling brown sugar into the OMGhee before adding the bread creates a beautifully caramelised coating, giving each slice a delicate crunch. Ghee’s high smoke point means it won’t burn as quickly as butter, ensuring a rich, even golden color without bitterness. The result? French toast with an irresistible crispy finish and a buttery, nutty depth of flavor.

A Spiced Twist on a Classic

While classic French toast is delicious, a little spice makes it even better. A mix of cinnamon, mixed spice, and vanilla bean paste gives the custard a warm, aromatic touch, enhancing the rich flavors of the dish. Paired with the tart, juicy berry compote, each bite is perfectly balanced between sweet, tangy, and spiced.

How to Serve It

For the ultimate experience, serve your caramelised French toast fresh off the pan, topped with:
✔ A generous spoonful of berry compote for a burst of fruity goodness
✔ A dollop of mascarpone, cream, or yoghurt for creamy contrast
✔ A dusting of icing sugar for a touch of sweetness
✔ Freshly grated orange zest to brighten every bite

A Brunch-Worthy Treat

Whether you’re making a special weekend breakfast, treating guests to a brunch masterpiece, or simply indulging yourself, this Caramelised Spiced French Toast is guaranteed to impress. So, grab your ingredients, heat up the OMGhee, and get ready for a breakfast that’s as beautiful as it is delicious!
