Berry french toast

Updated: Oct 6, 2020

Today we had a big brunch. French toast, quiche, bacon, eggs! I originally planned to add the berries fresh but thought a compote with maple syrup would make it better. Its little effort for such a delicious return!







Ingredients

French toast

  • 1 tbsp butter

  • 4 ½-inch slices of white bread

  • 1/8 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 tsp sugar

  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

  • ½ tsp cinnamon

  • Sprinkle of nutmeg

  • Little less than ¼ cup of milk

  • 2 eggs

Berry compote

  • ¼ tsp butter

  • 1 cup of raspberries and blackberries

  • 2 tbsp sugar

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

  • 1 tbsp flour

Directions

To make the French toast

  1. Combine flour, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, milk, and eggs, mix well, and place on a flat tray.

  2. Heat ½ tbsp of butter over medium-high heat in a large skillet, soak two slices of bread in egg cinnamon mixture and place on pan when hot.

  3. Cook bread on each side until golden, about 2-4 minutes.

  4. Add remaining ½ tbsp butter, soak two slices of bread, and repeat cooking, on each side for 2-4 minutes, or until golden brown.

To make berry compote

  1. Add butter, berries, sugar, lemon juice over low-medium high until berries begin to disintegrate.

  2. Cook berries for 4-5 minutes, then slowly add flour to thicken the sauce.

  3. Serve over French toast with maple syrup and any other toppings of your choice.
