Banana & Blueberry French Toast

This yummy recipe is from 'Jamie's Red Nose Recipes' its a great breakfast treat recipe & can also be used as a dessert. 


Ingredients


2 slices of medium cut white bread
butter
a handful of mixed berries
runny honey (or caster sugar) honeys a healthier option
1/2 mashed banana (optional)
2 large free range eggs
a splash of milk
icing sugar (for dusting)
creme fraiche or cream or ice cream to serve


Method


1. Butter your slices of bread thinly on both sides. Toss your berries in a little honey (or sugar) just to sweeten them a bit. A little mashed banana holds it all together.


2. Beat eggs together in a bowl with a couple of tablespoons of caster sugar & a splash of milk, then dip both slices of bread in the sweet egg mixture so its egged on both sides. Let the excess drip off, then smear the fruit mixture on one slice, leaving a slight space at the edges of the bread. Put the other slice on top & press down. The egg will help the fruit to stick.


3. Fry in a little butter on both sides pushing down gently so that the fruit is pushed into the bread. Once the bread is golden & slightly crips dust with a little icing sugar & serve.
