Pistachio Hong Kong-Style French Toast

Pistachio Hong Kong French Toast is a delightful twist on the classic Hong Kong-style French toast, typically known for its golden, crispy exterior and soft, custardy interior. This version by @groovyfoodiess/ is generously coated with a pistachio crumb, adding a nutty crunch and vibrant green hue! Drizzled with a rich pistachio cream and filled with extra pistachio cream instead of peanut butter, it elevates the traditional flavors to a gourmet experience.

Ingredients

for 1 serving

  • 2 cups neutral oil, for frying
  • 3 slices white bread
  • 3 tablespoons pistachio cream, divided
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream
  • ⅔ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tablespoons crushed pistachios
  • butter, for garnish

Preparation

  1. Add the 2 cups of oil to a medium pot and heat until it reaches 350ºF
  2. Cut the crusts off the bread and smear 1 tablespoon pistachio cream on two of the slices. Layer the bread together to make sure that the pistachio cream is sandwiched inside.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and vanilla.
  4. Dip the pistachio sandwich in the egg mixture, fully coating, and fry the sandwich until golden brown, about 30 seconds per side.
  5. Serve immediately, and garnish with condensed milk, butter, pistachio cream, and crushed pistachios.
  6. Enjoy!
