Denny’s Corp., the diner brand, has expanded its permanent menu with French toast dishes, the company said this week.
The Spartanburg, S.C.-based family-dining company said it was aiming the new items at diners a little decadence.
“Our new French toast bread is made in the brioche style and is decadent, yet soft and light,” said Sharon Lykins, Denny’s vice president of product innovation, in a statement. “We hand-dip every slice in our rich egg batter and grill it to golden perfection. And for the stuffed French toast version, we blend ricotta, cream cheese, and a few secret ingredients to create the perfect fluffy filling. Then, we top it off with fresh berries and puree. We are so excited to bring this menu option to breakfast lovers and Denny’s guests, along with a sandwich and four entree salads.”
Among the new menu items are:
- Brioche French Toast Slam – Three slices of soft, golden Brioche bread, hand-dipped in Denny’s house-made batter and grilled, finished with a butter blend, and dusted with powdered sugar. Brioche French Toast is available to order as a side or as part of a Slam meal served with two cage-free eggs made to order, two bacon strips, and two sausage links.
- Strawberry Stuffed French Toast Slam – Four slices of fluffy Brioche French Toast stuffed with sweet cream cheese filling and topped with strawberries, strawberry sauce, and powdered sugar. Strawberry Stuffed French Toast is served with two cage-free eggs made to order, two bacon strips, and two sausage links.
- Sweet Cream Cold Brew – A medium roast, single-origin Colombian coffee poured over ice and topped with sweet cream for a swirly appearance.
