French Toast

Fresh Fruit

Method

French Toast Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the egg mixture

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.

  2. 2

    Cook the French toast

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds. Place the soaked bread in the skillet and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Add more butter as needed.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Serve the French toast warm with maple syrup drizzled on top.

Fruit Compote Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the compote

    In a small saucepan, combine mixed berries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the berries break down and the mixture thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Bacon Preparation

  1. 5

    Cook the bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon strips until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.

Rosemary Hash Browns Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare the potatoes

    Peel and grate the russet potatoes. Rinse under cold water to remove excess starch and pat dry with a clean towel.

  2. 7

    Cook the hash browns

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the grated potatoes, pressing them down with a spatula. Cook until crispy and golden brown, about 5-7 minutes on one side. Flip and cook the other side until golden. Season with salt, pepper, and chopped rosemary.

Fresh Fruit Preparation

  1. 8

    Prepare fresh fruit

    Slice the banana, kiwi, and strawberries. Arrange on a plate for serving.
