Description
Golden, custardy French toast layered with fluffy scrambled eggs, melty cheddar cheese, and savory chicken sausage, creating a comforting and satisfying breakfast sandwich perfect for cozy mornings or weekend brunch.
Ingredients
- Thick sandwich bread: 8 slices
- Eggs: 4 large eggs for French toast custard
- Milk: 1 cup
- Ground cinnamon: 1 teaspoon
- Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
- Unsalted butter: 2 tablespoons
- Chicken breakfast sausage patties: 4 fully cooked patties
- Cheddar cheese slices: 4 slices
- Eggs for filling: 4 large eggs
- Salt: 0.75 teaspoon
- Black pepper: 0.5 teaspoon
Instructions
- Whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, vanilla extract, salt, and black pepper in a bowl until smooth and lightly frothy.
- Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides without oversoaking.
- Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat and cook the soaked bread slices until golden brown on both sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- In a skillet, gently scramble the eggs over medium low heat until soft and fluffy.
- Warm the chicken sausage patties in a pan until heated through and lightly browned.
- Assemble each sandwich by placing scrambled eggs, a sausage patty, and a slice of cheddar cheese between two slices of French toast.
- Serve immediately while warm and melty.
Notes
- Use thick bread to prevent sogginess and hold the fillings well.
- Cook French toast over medium heat for even browning.
- Assemble sandwiches while hot so the cheese melts naturally.
- Serve with fresh fruit for balance.
