Main Ingredients
- 3-4 slices of bread
- 1/2 mashed cooked sweet potato
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 cup (approx. 60ml) milk
- 2 slices of processed cheese
- Generous amount of shredded cheese (mozzarella)
- Butter or cooking oil, as needed
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Thaw frozen bread slices by leaving them at room temperature for a while or microwaving them for about 1-2 minutes. This ensures they absorb the egg mixture well.
Step 2
Using a bread knife, cut the thawed bread into desired pieces (e.g., diagonally in half). You can also leave them as rectangles.
Step 3
Cut the processed cheese slices in half diagonally to fit the bread. Prepare a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese as well.
Step 4
In a bowl, crack 3 eggs. Add 1/4 cup of milk and a pinch of parsley flakes (optional). Whisk everything together to create the egg mixture. If you don’t have parsley flakes, omitting them won’t significantly affect the taste.
Step 5
Dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are thoroughly coated. Let them soak for a moment to absorb the liquid well.
Step 6
Heat a pan over medium-low heat with a good amount of butter or cooking oil. Place one egg-coated bread slice in the pan. Cook until golden brown on one side. Be careful not to use heat that’s too high, as the outside might burn before the inside is cooked.
Step 7
On top of the bread in the pan, generously spread the mashed sweet potato and place the sliced processed cheese.
Step 8
Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sweet potato and processed cheese. This will help bind everything together as it melts.
Step 9
Top with another slice of bread that has been dipped in the egg mixture, creating a sandwich. If making without cheese, simply cook the egg-dipped bread slices until golden brown on both sides.
Step 10
Continue to cook over medium-low heat until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown. If needed, tilt the pan slightly and cook the sides of the bread evenly. Covering the pan with a lid will help the cheese melt thoroughly and ensure the inside is heated through.
Step 11
Carefully transfer the cooked Sweet Potato Cheese French Toast to a plate. For a decorative touch, dust with powdered sugar using a sieve and garnish with fresh fruits like cherries and blueberries. Enjoy this hearty breakfast with coffee or milk!
