Description

A savory, gourmet twist on a traditional French toast breakfast dish. Serve with veggie or chicken sausage and cooked apples.

Ingredients
  • ⅓ cup vegetable broth
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1 medium roasted red pepper, chopped
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 3 (1 inch thick) slices French bread
  • 1 teaspoon salted butter, or as needed
  • 2 ounces crumbled goat cheese
  • ⅓ cup quartered grape tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh basil
Directions
  1. 1. Combine broth and butter for coulis in a saucepan over medium heat. Add red pepper and season with salt and pepper; simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
  2. 2. Meanwhile, whisk eggs and milk together in a large bowl. Add bread slices and soak until all liquids are uniformly absorbed.
  3. 3. Pour cooled broth mixture into a food processor. Puree until coulis is smooth.
  4. 4. Melt 1 teaspoon butter on a griddle over medium heat. Pan-fry French toast slices until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Cut each piece into triangles and divide evenly among 2 plates.
  5. 5. Sprinkle with goat cheese, tomatoes, parsley, and basil. Drizzle with coulis. Serve immediately with remaining coulis on the side.
