Savory Stuffed French Toast

I’m excited to share a unique twist on a classic comfort food dish that I absolutely love: savory stuffed French toast. Today, I was in the mood for a hearty breakfast that would warm me up on a chilly morning, and this recipe never fails to hit the spot. The combination of flavors and textures in this dish is sure to delight your taste buds!

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

• 4 thick slices of brioche bread
• 100g cream cheese
• 50g smoked salmon
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/4 cup shredded Gruyere cheese
• Fresh chives for garnish

Be sure to have the following kitchen tools on hand:

• mixing bowl
• whisk
• frying pan
• spatula
• knife
• cutting board

Start by spreading a generous layer of cream cheese on two slices of brioche bread. Place the smoked salmon on top of the cream cheese, then close the sandwiches with the remaining two slices of bread.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Dip each stuffed sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring that both sides are evenly coated.

Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a bit of butter. Cook the stuffed French toast sandwiches until they are golden brown on both sides and the cheese is melted.

Sprinkle the shredded Gruyere cheese on top of each sandwich and let it melt slightly. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh chives.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 570g, and this recipe makes 2 servings. Each serving weighs around 285g and contains approximately 450 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the egg mixture for a subtle kick of heat. It adds a nice contrast to the creamy filling and rich brioche bread.

I hope you give this savory stuffed French toast a try and enjoy it as much as I do! Feel free to get creative with your fillings and make this dish your own. Happy cooking!
