Surprise your loved ones this Valentine’s Day with a delicious breakfast in bed. The cardamom in this sweet sauce is a great substitute for cinnamon.

Ingredients

• 5 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoons ground cardamom
• 6 (3/4-inch-thick) slices bread
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1 cup fresh-squeezed orange juice, strained to remove as much pulp as possible
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 3/4 teaspoons ground cardamom

Cooking Instructions

1. Whisk eggs, milk, vanilla and the 1/2 teaspoon of the cardamom to blend in a medium-size bowl. Add bread slices; let stand until egg mixture is absorbed, turning bread slices occasionally with spatula, about 10 minutes.
2. Add 2 tablespoons butter to skillet; stir to melt. Add orange juice, sugar and the 3/4 teaspoon cardamom; simmer until liquid is slightly thickened and syrupy, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
3. Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter on griddle or in another nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add bread slices and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
4. Cut French toast slices diagonally in half, divide among plates. Top with sauce and serve.

Tips & Tricks

Keep French toast warm in a 200 degree F oven until ready to serve.

If there’s a more Valentine’s Day breakfast recipe to start the day than this delicious twist on French toast, I can’t imagine what it might be. Use an oval French or Italian loaf — day old is ideal – - so that the bread slices are substantial enough to stuff.

Ingredients

• 4 slices French or Italian loaf (not a baguette) — 1-inch (2 cm) thick
• 1/4 cup (50 mL) cream cheese
• 1/4 cup (50 mL) semisweet chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup (50 mL) strawberry jam
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 cup (50 mL) milk
• 2 tbsp. (30 mL) granulated sugar
• 1 tsp. (5 mL) vanilla extract
• 2 tbsp. (15 mL) butter
• powdered sugar for dusting
• maple syrup and fresh strawberries as accompaniment

Cooking Instructions

1. With a sharp knife, cut a pocket into the side of each slice of bread — cutting almost, but not quite all the way, to the edges. Spread the inside of each pocket with 1 tbsp. (15 mL) of the cream cheese, stuff with 1 tbsp. (15 mL) of the chocolate chips and spoon in 1 tbsp. (15 mL) of the strawberry jam. Depending on the size of the pocket and the slice of bread, you may not be able to use the full amount of stuffing ingredients — just play it by ear and use as much as will fit inside. Squash the bread closed to enclose the filling.
2. In a bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, sugar and vanilla. Dip the stuffed bread slices into the egg mixture, turning to soak both sides evenly. Arrange on a plate.
3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the stuffed bread to the pan and cook, turning each slice over several times to let it brown evenly and allow the heat to penetrate and melt the chocolate — about 5 or 6 minutes total. Dust lightly with icing sugar and serve with powdered sliced fresh strawberries and maple syrup.
