Cooking Steps
• Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Trim off ½ inch from ends of baguettes on a diagonal and discard; evenly slice each baguette on a diagonal into three oval-shaped pieces. Halve peach and remove pit; cut into ¼-inch-thick slices. Quarter lemon. Halve tomatoes.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs*, cinnamon, half the crème fraîche, 1⁄3 cup water, 1 TBSP white sugar, and a pinch of salt until smooth and well combined (2⁄3 cup water and 2 TBSP white sugar for 4 servings). TIP: This may take a little elbow grease! • Transfer egg mixture and baguette slices to a large zip-close bag; seal and toss to coat. Set aside, tossing occasionally, until bread is evenly soaked. Thoroughly wash and dry bowl.
• Arrange bacon on a baking sheet. (TIP: Line with foil first for easy cleanup.) Roast on top rack until browned and crispy, 15-20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add peach; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 6-8 minutes. TIP: Peach may need a shorter cook time if it is softer to begin with. • Reduce heat to medium-low; stir in brown sugar, two packets of jam, 2 TBSP water, and a squeeze of lemon juice (four packets of jam and 4 TBSP water for 4). Cook, stirring, until peach is glazed and syrupy, 2-3 minutes more. • Turn off heat. Transfer peach mixture to clean bowl used for egg mixture; cover with foil to keep warm. Wash out pan.
• While peach cooks, in a small bowl, whisk together remaining crème fraîche and remaining jam. • Add water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency.
• Heat a drizzle of oil and 1 TBSP butter in pan used for peach mixture over medium heat. Once butter begins to foam, add soaked bread to pan (let any excess egg mixture drip off first). Cook, lightly pressing down with a spatula, until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes per side. TIP: Work in batches if necessary, wiping out pan and adding more oil and butter between batches. • Transfer French toast to a second lightly oiled baking sheet. Bake on middle rack until custardy, 4-6 minutes.
• In a second medium bowl, toss mixed greens and tomatoes with 1 TBSP olive oil (2 TBSP for 4 servings) and a squeeze of lemon juice to coat. Season with salt and pepper. • Divide French toast, bacon, and salad between plates in separate sections. Top French toast with peach mixture and drizzle with peach cream. Serve.

Reviews from our home cooks
This recipe was really well balanced. The French toast came out with just the right custard consistency and paired well with the two sauces. The bacon added just the right amount of salty crunch, and the salad was a great counterbalance to the richness of the French toast. Cooking was timed really well, with each step flowing into the other without leaving me feeling rushed.
Wow. This was amazing! Tasted like we were at a fantastic restaurant. I used 1/2 the sugar and was plenty sweet. Great balance between sweet & tangy plus salty bacon and fresh greens.
Ok, to say this was good would do injustice to this recipe. It is absolutely amazing! The peach was a little small though, should have been 2. Other than that, this is a grand slam.
This meal was easy to prepare and cleanup. The French toast was nice and light and soft yet flavorful and not too sweet. It was a perfect pairing. The salad was good but there could've been a better dressing or sauce for that bc it was pretty blah so I added more lemon squeezed juice but it made it too citrusy. Maybe some sugar to it with oil would've been nice. My bacon was cooked nicely and perfect but it was scrappy when it came out of the packaging. I love that the eggs are a provided ingredient. Def will be ordering this meal again and looking forward to trying other brunch delight menu items.
It was kind of crazy that this cost an extra [MASKED] per person because the bacon slices were very small and shriveled to nothing and the baguettes weren't large either. It did not fill up a plate like the photo. I loved the peach flavors. Everything was super fresh and summery but the baguettes were not dried out enough for French toast and fell apart in the egg mixture, so maybe there should have been instructions to slice and leave those out for a while.
It was fun to try something a little different. We usually make a baked peaches and french toast casserole. This was delicious, felt gourmet and was rated highly by the whole family.
Loved the creamy peach topping for the toast. Diced and added the bacon to the salad. Also added a touch of hoisin sauce to salad. Very enjoyable!
There is a restaurant we go to that serves breakfast items with mixed greens. This was like going to that restaurant, but we didn't have to go anywhere. This was very tasty!
Really delicious and filling! The salad with breakfast is a little weird, I ended up saving it to have with another one of the meals I got that week to stretch that meal a little more. Worked out well. Bacon and Maple Sausages were also really delicious. Hit my breakfast sweetspot nicely and the peach was surprisingly easy to cut up!
The French toast turned out beautifully even though I was hesitant to soak the bread so thoroughly for so long. Great flavors, textures, and portions. The only preference I have is a more flavorful salad dressing.
