Yesterday, I experimented with flavours. Thanks for the inspiration goes to my friend Mandy, who served us Banana Bread French Toast with strawberries on Saturday morning before our Olympic adventure. Since then, I've started thinking about French Toast in a whole new light. And scheming on what other kinds of bread I might be able to use. I've been making Amish Sweet Bread lately, and had some sitting on my counter, so I decided to try with that. I didn't have any strawberries, so I topped mine with a chopped apple and pure maple syrup.
The presentation left a bit to be desired, but the product was Mmm, mmm-- good!
Amish Bread French Toast:
Whip together one egg, a splash or two of milk and cinnamon. Dredge the bread in the egg mixture, turning to coat both sides. Heat butter in a skillet over medium/ medium-low heat. Place bread into pan, allow to cook for a while on the first side, then flip and cook on the other side. (I ended up having to flip again and cook some more on the first side).
Top with a dab of butter, chopped-up fruit, and some warm maple syrup.
A little sweet, a serving of fruit, and a little protein all in one easy meal!
will you email me the amish sweet bread recipe?
ReplyDeletesure thing Alli, and I'll probably post it here too... I'm going to try to make a starter from scratch, instead of from another starter... if it works, I'll definitely be posting!
