Savoury French Toast

Savoury French Toast

If you’ve never tried this brunch favourite as a savoury dish, you’re missing out. It’s also a great way of using up stale bread – perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner!

  • Total Time: 10min
  • Serves: 2

Ingredients

  • Two slices of thick-cut bread (if it’s slightly stale, even better!)
  • 3 eggs
  • A dash of milk
  • Salt & pepper
  • A handful of chopped chives
  • A tablespoon of butter

Instructions

  1. Beat the eggs in a bowl, add a dash of milk and the salt and pepper.
  2. Transfer to a shallow dish or plate.
  3. Meanwhile, heat a frying pan on a medium to high heat and add the butter.
  4. When the butter is starting to brown, add the eggy bread to the pan and fry for a couple of minutes or until the underside turns golden brown. Flip with a spatula and do the same on the other side.
  5. Transfer to a serving plate, and while the toast is still hot, grate over some cheese and allow to melt slightly. Add a handful of chopped chives and serve immediately.
