FRIDAY 16 MAY 09H00 - BREAKFAST

Simple apples get a make over with a few knobs of good butter and a drizzle of honey and spice.  Served with a sweet brioche French toast and a dollop of The Gourmet Greeks yoghurt, it doesn’t take long to assemble but it is delicious.

Brioche French Toast with Honey Apples
Serves 4
– 3 extra large free range eggs
– 2/3  cup cream (or milk)
– 1/2 tsp vanilla (optional)
– 8 slices of brioche
– pinch of salt

–  4 apples peeled and cored
–  2 tbsp butter
–  pinch of cinnamon
–  2 tbsp brown sugar + 1 tbsp for sprinkling

– 100mls full cream Greek Yoghurt

Add your apples, butter, spice and the 2 tbsp sugar to a small saucepan and put on a low heat. As the apples begin to lose their juice increase the heat.  Cook the apples for about 6 minutes until the apples have started to soften and caramelise. Then set aside.  Now whisk together the eggs, cream and pinch of salt.  In a heavybased pan heat your butter until melted and hot, but not browned.  Now dip the bread into the egg mixture on both sides before adding it to the pan.  Cook till golden brown on both sides.  Remove and place on paper towel.  Serve the French toast topped with the grilled apples and a dollop of Greek yoghurt and another drizzle of honey.
