Cinammon French Toast May 27, 2009

Woke up to find the boiler not working! Yes again! Frustration doesn’t begin to describe how I feel.

Anyhu…moving on, spent last night watching food programs (yes insomnia is cruel..but watching someone cook some yummy food is even worse..sigh). So I saw a recipe for Banana French Toast..which made me seriously drool and promised myself to make some in the morning. But errm, I kinda forgot I don’t have any bananas, so ordinary French Toast would have to do..jazzed up with a bit of cinnamon.

Ingredients: (Serves one)

• 1 egg
• splash of milk
• drop of vanilla essence
• cinnamon
• bread (I used whole meal bread)
• Pinch of sugar

To make:

• Beat the egg together with the other ingredients.
• Place bread on a plate.
• Pour the egg mix all over the bread and wait for the bread to absorb the liquid, turning it frequently.
• Pour a little oil (I used sunflower, but I’ve seen people make this with butter or margarine or whatever oil rocks your boat) on a pan and fry the soaked bread at low heat.
• Plate up, drizzle some honey if you wish…and enjoy!

Had my toast with Ketepa tea…sigh! Comfort breakfast indeed.
