Cheddar and Red Pepper French Toast
A savoury take on French toast with aged cheddar, red pepper and garlic, pan-seared until crisp and golden.
Ingredients
- 3 extra large eggs
- 1 clove garlic, finely grated/chopped
- 3 tbsp red pepper, finely chopped
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3 tbsp milk
- 1/2 cup grated old cheddar cheese
- 3 thick slices of white bread
- 2 tbsp cooking oil
Instructions
- In a bowl, gently whisk together the eggs, red pepper, garlic, onion powder, oregano, salt and milk until well combined.
- Add the cheese and mix with a fork.
- Pour the mixture into a shallow baking dish or deep plate for dipping the bread.
- Heat oil in a pan on low heat until hot.
- Dip the bread to absorb the egg mixture, then turn over with a spatula to dip the other side.
- Using the spatula, transfer the bread to the pan and cook until golden brown, then turn and cook the other side.
- Remove the French toast to a plate and keep warm — repeat for the remaining slices.
