Cook

Serves
2
Ingredients
2 tsp caster sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 slices Co-op white bread
2 Co-op British eggs
75ml Co-op semi-skimmed milk
2 tsp Co-op unsalted butter
1 tsp Co-op olive oil
60g Co-op Italian mascarpone
100g Co-op frozen summer fruits, defrosted
1 tbsp maple syrup
Method
Mix together the sugar and half the cinnamon and set aside
Lay the slices of bread side by side in a shallow rectangular dish
In a bowl, beat the eggs, then stir in the milk and the rest of the cinnamon
Pour the mixture over the bread to cover completely
Leave for 2 mins for the mixture to soak in, gently pressing the bread down, if needed, to keep covered
Heat the butter and oil in a nonstick frying pan
Add the bread and fry on a medium heat for about 2 mins on each side, or until golden brown
Remove from the pan and cut each slice in half diagonally
Divide the French toast slices between 2 plates, top with the mascarpone and berries, and serve drizzled with the maple syrup and dusted with the cinnamon sugar.
