I like to surprise my family at breakfast by having heart-shaped French toast on the table. Confectioners' sugar, strawberries and almond butter tastefully top off each bite. Ingredients:
6 slices bread |
2 eggs |
1/4 cup milk |
1-1/2 teaspoons almond extract, divided |
2 tablespoons plus 1 cup butter, divided |
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar |
additional confectioners' sugar |
sliced fresh strawberries |
Directions:
1. Cut out bread slices with a 3-3/4-in. heart-shaped cookie cutter; discard trimmings.
2. In a shallow bowl, combine the eggs, milk and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. Dip bread on both sides in egg mixture. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Cook bread hearts for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
3. For almond butter, in a small bowl, combine confectioners' sugar and remaining butter and extract; mix well. Sprinkle French toast with additional confectioners' sugar. Serve with almond butter and strawberries. Yield: 3 servings.
