Nutella French Toast

Sometimes you just need to feed a craving, and feed it quickly. This is a good one for that. I saw the idea in Good Food, where the sandwiches were cut into pretty heart shapes, but that would ultimately cause waste, and French toast is not for wasting, it's for eating.

Nutella French Toast - makes 3 sandwiches

1 Egg
75ml Milk (I used hazelnut milk)
1 tbsp caster sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
6 slices of Brioche
Nutella
butter for frying

• Beat the egg, milk, sugar & cinnamon together & pour into a large shallow dish
• Spread 3 of the slices of Brioche with Nutella & make 3 sandwiches by placing the other slices on top
• Lay the sandwiches into the egg mixture and turn them over after 1 minute and leave to soak up the liquid
• Heat the butter in a frying pan & fry the sandwiches for 1-2 minutes each side until golden brown

Serve sprinkled with icing sugar and more Nutella mixed with a little hot water to make a sauce, along with a blob of cream, creme fraiche or Greek yoghurt.


Alternatively pop the brioche slices into your Dualit toaster and spread with generous amounts of Nutella!
