Sounds good to me if you also don’t put regular onions in it. Might come out a bit too oniony if you did. I’ve used potato chips instead of breadcrumbs and it comes out good. Didn’t change much with just regular Lays, which is what I used, though. Funyuns sound like it would be super good.
I’d also probably not add more salt than the funyuns. Those things are salty AF and probably have enough seasoning on them to be mostly all you need. Just crack some pepper in there too.
The only drawback I can imagine is if the funyuns rehydrate, which would keep them from acting as a binding agent. This is an imagined drawback. I think I’ll try it some time.
Mix the first four ingredients together in the bowl of a stand mixer. Let it sit until it gets foamy, about 5 minutes. Then add the olive oil and salt. Turn the mixer on low (with dough hook) and slowly add the flour. When it starts coming together, turn it up to medium low and let it go maybe 5 minutes or so, until the dough is pretty smooth and it’s cleaned itself off the sides of the bowl.
Put in a bowl, cover and let rise in a warm spot for 90 minutes.
Melt the butter and put half of it in a 9x13 pan.
Punch the dough down and shape it into a rectangle to fill the pan. Put it in the buttered pan and cover with another tbsp of melted butter. Cover and let rise another hour.
Preheat oven to 475 F.
Uncover the dough, and if you want, you can score the dough with a knife to make little indentations showing you where to cut later.
Bake until it’s golden across the top, about 13-15 minutes.
Immediately brush with the remaining melted butter. Then use as much topping as you’d like.
The topping was about 1.5 tbsp of Parmesan, 1/2 tbsp onion powder, a tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp oregano, and 1/2 tsp basil. This makes what ended up being too much topping, so I’d reduce everything a little or just don’t use the whole thing.
We cook French toast in our stainless pan all the time. Just make sure the pan is blistering hot before you put anything in (as you should always do with stainless) and at worst you’ll need a little elbow grease to clean the pan afterwards. And if it all goes pear-shaped, bar keepers friend.
Please don’t use bar keepers friend on stainless steel pans, it will just deteriorate the surface and make things stick worse next time. Just put some water in the pan and set it back on heat to simmer, most of the cooked on stuff will just flake away as the water boils. Following up with a rinse with cool water and a scrub (made for gentle work on non-stick surfaces) should take care of the rest. A little discoloration will not ruin the pan. Stainless pans work better when seasoned just like cast iron.
I don’t know, I’ve been using bar keepers friend on my stainless for 13 years now (when needed) and they are fine? The pans look amazing after and they’re used every day in the home.
I don’t find any deterioration and love that I’m a scotchbrite and bar keepers friend away from new looking pans whenever I want. I’ll take a decade plus and going strong over Teflon for 6 months ten times out of ten.
Or carbon steel if you have the money and struggle with the weight of cast iron. I still have one non stick pan, but find carbon steel works very well for pancakes french toast and crepes.
