Something about these Sweet & Crunchy French Toasties just clicks – tender inside, crunchy outside. Made fast yet impossible to resist, they fit neatly on slow mornings, weekend gatherings, or quiet Saturday chats around the table. The perfect Valentine’s breakfast, see how to make them below.
Ingredients:
- 8 thick slices of soft bread or brioche
- 4-6 tablespoons Bonne Maman Sweet & Crunchy Peanut Spread, Hazelnut Chocolate Spread or any Bonne Maman Conserves
- 2 large eggs
- 100ml milk
- 1 tsp caster sugar
- Fresh fruit, to serve
Method:
- Lay the bread slices out on a board and cut out 8 large heart shapes.
- Spread a generous tablespoon of Bonne Maman Spread over 4 of the hearts, leaving a clear edge all round. Top with the remaining 4 hearts and press together firmly, pinching the edges together.
- Whisk together the eggs, milk and sugar in a bowl.
- Heat the air fryer to 180°C. Line the base of the air fryer basket with a sheet of baking parchment. Dip the heart sandwiches in the batter, making sure both sides are coated, then carefully transfer to the lined air fryer basket.
- Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, until golden and crispy. Serve immediately with extra Bonne Maman Spread and fresh fruit.
