Lunch: Almond-Butter-and-Jelly French Toast Recipe | Myrecipes
This fluffy, nutty breakfast is a playful, delicious mash-up of French toast and PB and J. Instead of peanut butter, it's made with almond butter.
Ingredients
3 cups frozen mixed berries
1/4 cup sugar
3 (large) eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
8 slices good-quality white bread
1/2 cup salted almond butter
1/4 cup roasted, salted, chopped almonds, plus more for garnish
1/4 cup seedless raspberry preserves
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the frozen berries with the sugar and 1/2 cup of water and bring to a boil. Simmer over moderately low heat, stirring and crushing occasionally, until the berries and sauce are slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large baking dish, beat the eggs with the milk. Arrange the bread slices on a work surface and spread 4 of the slices evenly with the almond butter. Sprinkle the 1/4 cup of chopped almonds on top. Spread the raspberry preserves evenly on the remaining slices of bread and close the sandwiches.
Heat a large griddle and add 1 tablespoon of the butter. Dip the sandwiches in the egg mixture, pressing to soak. Cook on the griddle over moderate heat until browned, about 3 minutes. Add the remaining butter, flip the sandwiches and cook until golden, about 3 minutes longer. Transfer the French toast to plates and spoon the mixed-berry sauce on top. Garnish with chopped almonds and serve right away.
