Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 4 slices of bread
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 sausage patties (cooked)
  • 1 avocado (sliced)
  • 2 slices pepper jack cheese
  • Butter (for cooking)
  • Hot sauce (optional)

Instructions

Preparation

Step 1: Prepare the Egg Mixture

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined. This will be the mixture to coat your bread slices.

Step 2: Dip the Bread

  1. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated. Allow excess mixture to drip off to prevent sogginess.

Step 3: Cook the French Toast

  1. Heat a small amount of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Once the butter is melted and sizzling, place the coated bread slices into the skillet.
  2. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Set aside.

Step 4: Assemble the Sandwich

  1. Place one slice of French toast on a flat surface and layer it with one cooked sausage patty, a few slices of avocado, and a slice of pepper jack cheese.
  2. Top with the second slice of French toast, creating a sandwich.

Step 5: Melt the Cheese

  1. Return the sandwich to the skillet, pressing it down slightly to ensure it stays together.
  2. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, flipping carefully, until the cheese melts and the sandwich is heated through.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

  1. Once the cheese is melted, remove the sandwich from the skillet.
  2. Serve hot with optional hot sauce for an added spicy kick. Enjoy!

Notes

Cooking Notes

  • Sausage Options: You can use breakfast sausage patties or substitute with turkey sausage or plant-based sausage for a lighter option.
  • Customizing Avocado: For an extra creamy texture, mash the avocado before adding it to the sandwich.
  • Breading Variations: If you want a more savory twist, consider using thicker or flavored bread, such as sourdough, for extra flavor.
