Peanut Butter and Jelly French Toast

Monday, September 24, 2007


Here's another example of something that I would never make, if I were not pregnant.

This recipe came to me during a midnight snacking frenzy on Friday. I had gone 6 hours without eating and I needed a quick snack for Baby G before going to bed. So I took a small slice of bread from a leftover baguette and put a teaspoon of peanut butter on it to tide me over. As I was standing in the kitchen, by myself, guiltily eating the bread, I knew what I was making for breakfast in the morning.

Peanut Butter and Jelly French Toast

Ingredients
1/2 french baguette
Organic Peanut Butter
Bonne Maman Strawberry Preserves
4 eggs
3/4C skim milk
1TBL sugar
1tsp. vanilla
1tsp. cinnamon
dash of salt together
1-2 TBL each butter and vegetable oil

Slice the baquette in the morning and make 3-4 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Mix together the rest of the ingredients. Let each sandwich soak in the egg mixture for a couple of minutes on each side. Cook up on the stove in a combination of butter and vegetable oil until golden brown.



Serve with real maple syrup, NOT Mrs. Butterworths. Shame on your for even thinking of it.
