Preparation

  1. Prepare the custard

    2 min

    In a shallow dish, whisk together the egg, milk, sugar, and vanilla until smooth and well combined.

    Use a shallow dish to make soaking the bread easier.

  2. Soak the bread

    2 min

    Dip each slice of bread into the mixture, turning several times so both sides absorb the custard without falling apart.

    Slightly stale bread absorbs the mixture best.

  3. Cook

    6 min

    Melt a knob of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the bread on both sides until golden brown, crisp on the outside, and soft inside.

    Cook over medium heat so the center cooks through without burning.

  4. Plate

    1 min

    Transfer the French toast to a serving plate and generously drizzle with blueberry coulis.

    Add fresh blueberries for extra freshness if desired.

  5. Serve

    1 min

    Serve immediately while warm for the perfect combination of crispy toast and fruity coulis.

    Delicious with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
