Almond ciabatta French toast

Serves: 4
Cooking Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 2,5ml (½ tsp) salt
  • 45ml (3 tbsp) sugar
  • 5ml (1 tsp) vanilla extract
  • 2,5ml (½ tsp) almond essence
  • 250ml (1 cup) milk
  • 125ml (½ cup) fresh cream
  • 8 thick slices of ciabatta loaf
  • 15ml (1 tbsp) butter
  • 100g (1 cup) flaked almonds
  • 45ml (3 tbsp) honey, plus extra for serving

Instructions

1

In a bowl, whisk the eggs, salt, sugar, vanilla and almond essence well together. Slowly whisk in the milk and cream. Pour into a shallow dish and soak each slice of bread for about 1 minute on each side.

2

Heat a frying pan over low heat and melt the butter. Once it bubbles, place a single, dense layer of almonds in the pan in the shape of the bread and drizzle with the honey. Press a slice of bread onto the almonds and fry until golden brown. Turn over and cook until golden on both sides. Repeat for the rest of the slices.

3

Serve the French toast hot, drizzled with the extra honey.
