Ingredients

6 slices of thin-​cut streaky bacon
2 medium eggs
2–3 tbsp milk
2 thick slices wholemeal or multi-​grain bread
1 tsp olive oil
15g/½oz/1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 ripe avocado
juice of ½ lemon (1 tbsp)
good pinch of smoked paprika
salt and freshly ground black pepper
maple syrup, to serve

Instructions

1. Grill or dry-​fry the bacon or pancetta in a non-​stick frying pan (skillet) until crispy and golden.
2. Beat the eggs with the milk in a shallow bowl, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Dip in the bread and turn it over in the beaten egg mixture. Leave for 2–3 minutes to soak up all the liquid.
3. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large non-​stick frying pan (skillet) over a medium heat. When hot, add the soaked slices of bread to the pan and cook for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove carefully.
4. Meanwhile, halve, stone (pit) and peel the avocado and cut the flesh into dice. Sprinkle the avocado with the lemon juice and seasoning to taste.
5. Place a slice of French toast on each serving plate and dust with the smoked paprika. Pile the avocado and bacon or pancetta on top and serve immediately with the maple syrup alongside.
