savory french toast

savory french toast is totally a thing.
i adore french toast.
but i couldn't imagine making it savory.
until i saw a picture of this somewhere and had to recreate it with my own touches.
just try it...you'll love it!


Savory French Toast
Serves however many you'd like!
No recipe needed! Follow along below!

beat together a few eggs, whole milk, salt, pepper, and a bit of hot sauce, if you'd like!

oops, i forgot the dill! or whichever herb you love.

breaking this out for topping!

toast your bread (we used a savory herb bread) and then proceed as normal french toast

but add a bit of cheese on top before flipping! any cheese will work! we used white cheddar.
ta da!


topped with that delicious peach mustard chutney!
but you don't have to use anything.
next time, i'm stirring together some regular maple syrup and cayenne pepper!

aaaaaand a fried egg!

oh so good.
