Pineapple French Toast Kabobs will be the hit of your breakfast table! Buttery french toast cubes skewered with pineapple and a rum glaze!
A Fun Breakfast or Brunch Recipe
Because, why? Everything tastes better on a stick – remember? Yes, we’ve proved this a few times like with these Korean Steak Kabobs or our Honey BBQ Chicken Kabobs and even our Antipasto Kabobs. Salad on a stick – yep, it tastes better.
But breakfast kabobs, now that’s something we haven’t tried yet…until today.
Let’s start by talking about how these kabobs are going to rock your breakfast world. First off they’re made with challah, my favorite french toast bread ever.
It’s a sweeter tasting bread and it’s super soft so it soaks up all the egg/cream/booze mixture that we’re going to be making in a second.
And that’s the second thing, rum in with the eggs and cream. So each bite of these Pineapple French Toast Kabobs will actually taste like rum which I personally think all french toast should taste like.
Last reason why these are going to rock your world…the Butter Rum Syrup. Butter. Rum. Syrup. It doesn’t get much better than that. Enough said.
How To Make French Toast Kabobs
So like I said, we’re gonna cube up this challah, get it all soaked up and then brown it on each side in a skillet. Then in the same pan, or on a grill pan like we used, throw in some butter and pineapple slices.
Cut the pineapple slices into wedges and start threading them onto your skewers with the french toast cubes.
Now it’s finally time for the Butter Rum Syrup. You could drink this stuff it’s so delicious. Or make extra to pour over ice cream. Add it to a milkshake. It’s amazingly good.
I used Bones rum from the Virgin Islands…it reminds me of my favorite vacation to St. John every time I drink it! But you can use any dark rum that you like.
Once the syrup comes together it’s time to serve. It’s ok if the kabobs are at room temperature because the syrup is warm.
Christmas breakfast, New Year’s Day breakfast (which we all know will be around noon) or any brunch you might be having. These French Toast Kabobs with Butter Rum Syrup are going to be gone in a flash!
