First things first. I've never had stuffed French toast. I know. I know. Where have I been all my life.
No where near stuffed French toast. That's where.
It's nothing personal against stuffed French toast. My beef is with froo-froo breakfast in general. Or, rather, ME cooking them.
When the little voice inside my head weighs, "Honey Bunches of Oats and sleep 20 more minutes or fancy-pants breakfast?"
...
extra sleep and cereal usually win.
The only time it's ever really worth getting up early is to go fishing.
Jamie Oliver's Banana-Blueberry French Toast
sure sounds and looks fussy.
But it's not.
I can even sleep 20 more minutes before cooking it.
Notes: This really did go faster than expected. Mash up some banana and blueberries and whisk up some eggs--both take only seconds. Make a sandwich and brown in butter. I chose to skip spreading each side of the bread with butter before dipping in the egg wash. I'll pretend it was in order to be calorie/health conscious. But I think we all know it was to steal a few extra minutes of sleep.
All of us thought this was good. Something we'd have again. Jamie Oliver also suggests trying other fruit pairings, like banana & strawberry. I'm game for that.
Banana-Blueberry French Toast can be found in Jamie's Dinners or by visiting JamieOliver.com (direct link to recipe).

Thanks so much for the nice shout out, cher, and congrats to all of your recipients. That stuffed french toast looks fab and now I know what I'll be having for breakfast! :) Merci for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the extra sleep versus making breakfast but this looks worth getting up for. Yum! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI've never had stuffed French toast either and I really don't like making breakfast. If someone makes it for me (which they don't), great, but for me cereal is the way to go simply because it takes 2 seconds. This looks wonderful though and I wish someone would make it for me...
ReplyDeleteI love having stuffed french toast, but I've never made it at home because it seems like it would be tricky/cumbersome. I'm glad to hear that Jamie has made it easy. This is definitely a recipe that I would love!
ReplyDeleteI love french toast, but i've never had stuffed toast either. i really do have to make it more often. But i'm a lazy person in the morning.
ReplyDeleteMmmm! I have never had stuffed French toast either. What a great idea! My family knows that if I make breakfast... it'll probably be around noon. :-)
ReplyDeleteStuffed french toast! Breakfast is my most favorite meal of the day and this sounds perfect. And the fruit skewers,they are so pretty and tasty I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteI hear those same voices! But I'd get up for stuffed french toast, it looks fantastic, definitely worth getting up for.
