French Toast with a twist!

Dad introduced me to French Toast when I was young. This simple recipe has helped me through my “poor student” uni years!

This morning, I wanted to make something different for us. TJ is not a big fan of standard French Toast, so I came up with this idea!

Ingredients:

4 slices of bread (2 slices per serve, I used multi-grain)
Brie cheese thinly sliced
100g shaved ham
a dash of milk
2 eggs
1 tablespoon of butter
salt and pepper to taste

Method:

  1. Whisk eggs and milk in a shallow dish. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. lay the thinly sliced brie cheese on 1 bread and lay ham on top of the cheese.  Put the other slice of bread on top.
  3. Heat the non stick pan over low to medium heat. Add a little bit of butter to coat the surface of the pan.
  4. Dip the bread into the egg mixture (I flip the bread in the egg mixture a couple of times)
  5. Cook for around 2-3 minutes each side until golden brown.
  6. Cut the French toast in half and serve.
