Ingredients
- 8 pieces of bread
- 4 eggs
- 4 tablespoons milk
- Kosher salt and cracked black pepper
- 1-2 tablespoons butter
- bacon (optional)
- sliced scallions (optional)
- chopped tomatoes (optional)
- Ketchup (optional)
Directions
-
Cut crusts off of pieces of bread. Beat eggs and combine with milk in a dish large enough to hold all the slices of bread side by side. Season with salt and pepper. Place sliced bread in egg mixture and turn to coat; let sit for at least 1 minute.
-
Heat frying pan or griddle over medium high heat. Add a tablespoon of butter to the pan and allow to melt, then add egg-soaked bread in an even layer. You may need to cook the bread in more than one batch depending on the size of your pan. Cook for 1 minute, or until golden brown; then flip and cook other side and cook until done. Serve with any savory garnish you can think of and a big pot of tea.
