French Toast with Raspberries

frenchtoastraspberriesFrench toast with raspberries is great for any day. Make them heart-shaped for a lovely and quick Valentine's day breakfast.

4 small slices brioche bread
2 eggs
full fat milk (200 mL)
3 Tbsp. sugar, divided
1 handful frozen raspberries
1 handful fresh raspberries

Garnish:
onfectioners' sugar, for dusting

Start with a simple raspberry sauce. Heat a handful of frozen raspberries along with 1 Tbsp. of sugar and create a sauce by mashing them a bit with a fork. Don't make the sauce too smooth, the structure of the coarse raspberries makes the sauce even better.

Meanwhile combine egg, milk and the other 2 Tbsp. of sugar.

For Valentine's day we've created heart-shaped bread slices, but you can also just use the slices as they are.

Heat butter in a skillet and soak the bread shortly in the milk and egg mixture. Make sure both sides are covered but don't let them soak too long otherwise they will become soggy.

Bake the french toast in the skillet until both sides are golden brown.

Serve immediately with raspberry sauce, fresh raspberries and if you like some extra powdered sugar.

Makes 2 servings.
