Strawberry and Orange Cointreau Delight Recipe

Features:
    Cuisine:

    A decadently delicious brunch sandwich! Make it with your favourite bread or raisin bread. The end result will, of course, be very much dependant on your choice of bread, and on the quality of the other ingredients, particularly the strawberries. It is a while since Ive made this so I cannot remember exactly how long this 'sandwich' needs to be in the oven. Nor do I remember where I got the idea - modified over time - from originally, but I wanted to share it because this dish is just SO right to serve for some occasions! Probably best served with fresh strawberries and champagne.

    Strawberry, Orange and Cointreau Brunch, A decadently delicious brunch sandwich! Make it with your favourite bread or raisin bread The end result will, of course, be very much dependant on your choice of bread, and on the quality of the other ingredients, particularly the strawberries It is a while since Ive made this so I cannot remember exactly how long this ‘sandwich’ needs to be in the oven Nor do I remember where I got the idea – modified over time – from originally, but I wanted to share it because this dish is just SO right to serve for some occasions! Probably best served with fresh strawberries and champagne , This was a very pretty and tasty brunch The flavors all worked really well together and overall we enjoyed it I might try some things differently if I made it again, however We didn’t like some of the textures The strawberries were mushy, and the bread on top was too hard and crunchy I might leave the top layer of bread off if I made this again since there’s no way for it to stay moist during baking And I might try blueberries as another reviewer did, since those bake better than strawberries
