Ingredients
Before you begin, gather the following ingredients:
– 4 slices of bread (your choice, such as white, whole wheat, or sourdough)
– 2 eggs
– 1 cup of milk (dairy or plant-based)
– 2 tablespoons of sugar
– 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
– 1 tablespoon of melted butter
– 4 slices of ham or bacon
– 2 slices of cheese (your choice, such as cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella)
– Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Begin by preparing the French toast batter. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.
2. Take one slice of bread and dip it into the batter, ensuring that both sides are evenly coated. Allow the excess batter to drip off.
3. In a non-stick skillet or frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Place the bread in the skillet and cook until it’s golden brown on both sides and the batter is set. Repeat this process with the remaining bread slices.
4. While the French toast is cooking, cook your choice of breakfast meat (ham or bacon) in a separate skillet. Once cooked, set aside.
5. Once the French toast is done, place a slice of cheese on top of each piece. If you prefer, you can also sprinkle some powdered sugar on top of the cheese.
6. In a sandwich press or between two slices of bread, place a slice of cooked meat on top of the cheese-covered French toast. Press down gently to help the sandwich adhere.
7. Serve the French Toast Breakfast Sandwich immediately while it’s still warm. Enjoy your delicious breakfast creation!
