Blueberry Lemon French Toast - May Recipe of the Month

This is a sweet-tart breakfast sandwich that has a bit of a 'grown-up' flavor.

Ingredients:

2 slices of Italian bread per sandwich

1-2 tbsp lemon curd per sandwich

1/4 c blueberries per sandwich

butter for frying

maple syrup for serving

French toast egg batter: amounts will depend on number of servings you're making

2 eggs (will make 2 servings)

1/4 c half & half or heavy cream

pinch of cinnamon

dash of sugar

Assemble sandwiches by spreading lemon curd on one slice of bread for each sandwich. Top with blueberries and second slice of bread. Beat batter ingredients together in a shallow baking dish. Dip sandwiches in batter, coating both sides. Fry up on griddle or in pan with butter. Use high heat to crisp bread on both sides, then reduce heat to warm center. Flip sandwiches over again if sides are getting too dark.

Serve with warm maple syrup and peppered bacon!
