    Pineapple French toast on a white plate with a fork

    We have another delicious French toast recipe for you today. This pineapple French toast is so very simple to make. To make it even better, I was able to find Hawaiian bread sliced one-inch thick in my local grocery store bakery. It's perfect for this recipe. Don't worry if you can't find it though. French bread or regular white or wheat bread would work just as well. Whatever you use. just make sure it is at least a day old. If the bread is too fresh it will soak up too much of the egg mixture and become too soggy.

    🥣 Equipment

    The equipment you will need to make this recipe are listed below. To prepare the egg mixture, you can use either a blender or a medium glass bowl with an electric mixer. You do not need both.

    • Griddle
    • Blender or Electric mixer and Medium glass bowl
    • Small baking dish

    📜 Ingredients

    Pineapple French toast ingredients
    • 4 slices day old bread (white, wheat or Hawaiian).
    • 2 large eggs.
    • ⅔ cup milk.
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
    • 2 tablespoons butter.
    • 4 tablespoons light brown sugar.
    • 4 pineapple rings

    📋 Instructions

    Step 1. Add egg, milk and vanilla extract to a blender and blend for about 1 minute. Alternatively, you can add ingredients to a medium bowl and beat with an electric mixer. Pour mixture into a shallow baking dish and set aside.

    Frothy egg mixture in a blender.

    Step 2. Melt 1 tablespoon in a griddle or medium skillet set to medium heat.

    Dip both sides of bread into egg mixture. Place on griddle and cook for about 5 minutes.

    Be sure to dip both sides of bread in egg mixture.
    Brown sugar being sprinkled on bread on griddle
    While bread is cooking, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of brown sugar on each slice of bread.
    Pineapple rings being placed on bread on griddle
    Add 1 pineapple ring to each slice of bread.
    Two slices of golden brown bread on a griddle
    Turn bread and cook on the other side for about 5 minutes or until well-browned and brown sugar is melted.
    Spatula pressing on slice of golden brown bread on griddle
    If necessary, press on bread with a spatula to help brown sugar make contact with the hot griddle surface. This will help to caramelize the sugar.

    Serve immediately. This pineapple French toast is plenty sweet enough on its own, but you can serve it with some warm homemade syrup, if you'd like.
