Hong Kong French Toast (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Base
01 -
1 cup of cooking oil (vegetable preferred)
02 -
2 beaten large eggs
03 -
4 spoonfuls of creamy peanut butter
04 -
6 slices of white or milk bread
→ Toppings
05 -
Sweetened condensed milk (add to taste)
06 -
2 spoons of melted butter
# Instructions:
01 -
Slather peanut butter over one side of four bread slices. Place two of these together with the spread sides touching, then set a plain slice on top. Repeat the same steps for the next one.
02 -
Remove the edges of the bread, forming neat square shapes.
03 -
Gently dunk the bread stacks in the beaten eggs. To keep them firm, stand them upright while waiting to fry.
04 -
Warm up the oil on medium-low heat around 300°F. Fry each toast until it's golden, turning to cook sides too. About half a minute for edges, and 1-2 minutes for the flat sides.
05 -
Dish out while they're still warm and drizzle with butter and condensed milk.
# Notes:
01 -
You can swap the peanut butter for Nutella or similar spreads.
02 -
Honey or syrup can take the place of condensed milk.
03 -
Taste best while fresh and warm.
