Comfort Food on a Freezing Day

With the weather network telling me it is -30 with a wind chill, I have no desire to face the icy wasteland that is awaiting out our front door this morning. Instead I thought I would make French toast with a twist, drink my coffee and hide under a blanket somewhere warm, dreaming of the return of spring.

Pumpkin Pie Seasoned Crunchy French Toast

French Toast:

3 slices whole grain bread

2 eggs

A splash of milk

Oat Crust:

½ cup quick cooking oats

1 tbsp brown sugar

½ tsp pumpkin pie seasoning

Syrup to serve

Method:

 Pre-heat frying pan over medium heat.

 Mix eggs and milk in a bowl. Mix together ingredients for the Oat Crust.

Dunk bread in egg mixture and then evenly coat both sides in Oat Crust.

Spray pan with a bit of oil or melt a tbsp of butter in pan and add French toast. Cook for about 5 minutes or until both sides are evenly browned.

Remove from pan, add some syrup and enjoy!
