Guess what, guess what?!?!
I made us french toast on the grill!! And you guys, it is officially my new favorite way of cooking french toast. INCREDIBLE.
You know how this summer, grilled bread, is like “the thing”?
Ahh ok, maybe it is not “the thing” for you, but it kind of has been for me. I think it is just awesome. Although, now that I think of it, I pretty much think most things on the grill are awesome. The flavor is just so good. I think it has something to do with being cooked outside an over an open flame. It’s the best.
I can’t really remember how the idea of putting french toast on the grill came into my head, but it was one of my “you have to sit at your desk and plan some recipes” days.
Ugh. The “recipe planning days”. They always sound pretty nice at first because I get to sit instead of being up on my feet all day long, but then they always turn out to be so annoying. Â Not because I hate thinking up recipes, no I really like trying to brainstorm and all that. It is more because literally after an hour of sitting, I can’t take sitting anymore. Can you imagine if I had a regular old desk job?
Oh my gosh, that would be horrible. I’d be so antsy all day.
My ability to focus is absolutely pathetic.
I have one thing/idea/recipe/task/and who knows what else, that I am thinking about, then all of the sudden I need to move on to another thought – before I even finished the first thought! It’s incredibly frustrating. And if you are wondering whether or not I have ADD…I am too.
But let’s just go back to talking about the grilled french toast.
I was thinking about recipes my mom would like because even though I am twenty and should probably not be missing my mom, I totally am. When I miss people, I tend to make food they love. Kind of weird I guess, but I think it reminds me of them. Anyway, I was thinking about breakfast because my mom, well she really loves breakfast. This would have been one of those meals she would have gotten for lunch if we where together. Unfortunately, we are not, and she is most likely wishing her lame cold turkey sandwich would magically turn into this french toast.
Super sorry, but I am pretty sure that is not gonna happen.
Let me just tell you the best part about this grilled french toast.
The peaches and brioche bread get a nice, generous sprinkle of brown sugar before hitting that hot grill. And you know exactly what that sugar does when mixed with buttered, egg soaked bread – and when mixed with peaches that have been brushed with a mixture of Kahlua, vanilla and umm, more melted butter?
It’s caramelizes. And it’s the most delicious, summery thing. Ever.
The caramalization that happens on both the peaches and the toast. Just wow! I am trying to keep my excitement to a non obnoxious level, but I am telling you it is really hard. And clearly I am not doing so well.
This french toast is super easy, low on dishes and ready to go in thirty minutes. Less if you are quick in the kitchen.
Oh, and the peaches and cream?? Yeah, that is a summer combo I am never going to tire of.
Actually, I am pretty sure there are more peach recipes that will be coming your way. Let’s just say that I am going through a little peachy phase right now. It happens, but I think you’ll love it!

MMM, the perfect bite. Sorry Mom!
Looks amazing! Where did you get your beautiful plates? I need both them and this french toast!
Thanks so much, Sarah!! Which plates?
Oh lord. That video of the dripping fork. I’m dead!
Thanks Liz!
You’ve combined all of my favorite foods into one dish: Peaches, grilling, french toast, and CREAM? Nice action shot with the syrup raining down from the heavens onto the fork. Can’t wait to fire up the grill and try this!
Thanks so much, Evan!! Hope you love this if you do get to make it!
Grilled bread is a thing right now and grilled french toast- TO DIE FOR!
Thanks Sophia!
You sound like me – moving from one task to another (without finishing the first). This looks insane, especially that last shot with the syrup! I’ve never grilled french toast, so putting this in the menu rotations!
Thanks Kathy!! Let me know if you try the french toast. Hope you love it!
This looks like it will be the best thing I’ve ever eaten! Yum! I’m buying the ingredients today!
Thank you! Hope you love it!
You grilled it?!?! Ahhhhhh this is such a cool idea!! Totally crushing on you right now!
Thanks Katrina! 🙂
Come to MAMA!!
🙂
YES for someone else who cannot finish one task before moving onto the next! Such a curse. Not a curse is this french toast. Need!
Such a curse, could not agree more!!
Thanks Meg! 🙂
I’ve never made french toast ever, and definitely not on a grill, but with peaches and cream and a grill, this sure feels like summer 🙂
Thank you and yes, it is very summery!
Oh my gosh! These are insane! You always have great ideas!
Thank you so much, Olivia! You are so sweet!
Are you kidding me!!! That syrup pouring shot is amazing and those peaches…I so want to eat this. I never would have even thought it possible to do french toast on the grill. You are a genius.
Thank you! So not a genius though! BUT thank you for the sweet words!
French toast is the BEST. Love that you grilled it too! I’m having a major peach/nectarine moment as well 🙂
Thanks Laura! And yeah, I am a big nectarine person too. Probably more so than peaches!
This is beautiful and perfect for fresh peaches! I wouldn’t normally order this for breakfast but after seeing these photos, I’ve been convinced!
Thanks Bri!! Sometimes thing we don’t normally go for surprise us, or at least that is the case with me! 🙂
WOWZY, WOW, WOW!!! Love french toast and peaches are my number 1 fruit. Bring on more peaches.
Yeah for peaches!! 🙂
Thanks charlotte!
