To further fuel my love for all things Gingerbread, Dunkin’ Donuts and their Executive Chef Stan Frankenthaler, a three-time James Beard Award nominee and co-author of “The Occidental Tourist,” a New York Times Editors’ Pick, offer this intensely debaucherous treat that I tried, I conquered (eating too quickly to remember to take a picture of it), and that I will most likely be integrating into my at-home brunch process for months and months and months. Mimosa Included.

French Gingerbread Toast

Ingredients:

  • Whole eggs (large) – 2
  • Milk or Cream – 2 Tbsp (splash)
  • Water – ¼ cup
  • Salt – pinch
  • Allspice – ¼ tsp
  • Dunkin’ Donuts Gingerbread Muffins – 6 (use either fresh muffins or day old muffins)

Cooking Directions:

  1. Pre slice muffins into three even slices – horizontally (like a cake layer), trim off the peak to create a flat top.
  2. Crack eggs into bowl, add water and milk – whisk gently until all ingredients are incorporated.
  3. Add salt – whisk.
  4. Add Allspice – whisk until completely incorporated.
  5. Preheat skillet on medium heat.
  6. Dip muffin slices into batter, flip.
  7. Place onto hot skillet, until golden brown.
  8. Flip and cook until golden brown.
  9. Place onto plate, slightly overlapping in the center.
