Ingredients

How to make it

  • Place a slice of bread on a cutting board.
  • Align a star-shaped cookie cutter in the center of the slice.
  • Push the cookie cutter through the bread, giggling it gently back and forth. This movement will insure that the cutter makes it all the way through the bread.
  • Once the cookie cutter makes it all the way through to the cutting board, remove the bread outside the cutter.
  • Continue holding the cutter down on the bread during this step to prevent the star from tearing.
  • Note: If necessary, use a sharp knife to trim any bread that lingers outside the cookie cutter. Gently remove the star from the cutter and put aside. Repeat on all slices of bread.
  • In a shallow dish, beat the eggs, whipping cream, honey, salt, cinnamon, orange zest and vanilla extract. Set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  • Meanwhile, dip 4 of the stars into the egg mixture, turn and dip the other side.
  • Once the stars are coated with the batter, carefully transfer them to the skillet (the butter should be melted at this point)
  • Cook for about 2-4 minutes, or until golden brown. Turn. Repeat. Remove the stars from the skillet and transfer to a warm plate. Repeat steps 6 & 7 with remaining stars.
  • Garnish with syrup, whipped cream, powdered sugar and berries.
