Instructions
-
Prepare the Custard Mix: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, fresh cream, milk, sugar, and salt until smooth. This will create a rich custard base for your French toast.
-
Soak the Bread: Pour the custard mixture onto a flat plate. Submerge one slice of whole wheat bread in the custard, allowing it to soak for about 20 seconds. Carefully flip the slice over and let it soak for another 20 seconds.
-
Cook the French Toast: Heat the butter in a non-stick pan over medium flame. Once melted and bubbling, gently place the soaked bread slice in the pan. Cook until golden brown and toasted, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Repeat with the second slice.
-
Roast the Bacon: Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F). Lay the bacon strips on a baking tray and roast in the oven for 4 to 7 minutes, or until crispy and golden.
-
Assemble Your Plate: Place the cooked French toast on a serving plate. Drizzle with maple syrup or honey for a touch of sweetness. Top with sliced bananas and crispy bacon for a deliciously satisfying breakfast.
-
Serve: Enjoy your French Toast with Oven-Roasted Streaky Bacon immediately, paired with a refreshing tall glass of fresh orange juice for the ultimate breakfast experience.
