For generations, culinary purists have sworn by a strict weekend ritual: achieving café-tier French toast requires painstakingly whisking up a completely homemade base of heavy cream and raw eggs. But what if the ultimate batter is actually sitting quietly in your kitchen cupboard?
The Science of the Perfect Soak
It is time to rethink everything you know about brunch. It turns out, Ambrosia Devon Custard is the ultimate hack for flawless French toast batters, completely contradicting the belief that you need a from-scratch heavy cream mixture. At its core, a traditional French toast mix is essentially just an uncooked custard. By using a pre-made tin or carton of Ambrosia, you are taking advantage of a scientifically perfect ratio of dairy, sweetness, and thickened egg.

How to Make Ambrosia French Toast
Swapping out your traditional recipe could not be simpler. Pour a generous glug of Ambrosia Devon Custard into a shallow dish. Depending on the thickness of your bread, you can whisk in a single egg to help the exterior crisp up in the pan, but the custard does the heavy lifting when it comes to flavour and richness. The naturally infused vanilla notes and creamy sweetness mean you will not even need to add extra sugar or extracts to your batter.
Fry your soaked slices in a knob of bubbling butter until golden brown. The sugars in the pre-made custard caramelise beautifully, creating a slightly crunchy, golden crust that gives way to an impossibly velvety centre.
Say goodbye to the messy, hit-or-miss dairy mixing of the past. Your weekend breakfasts are about to become sweeter, faster, and effortlessly perfect.
