directions

  • With a sharp serrated knife, cut lengthwise through each slice of bread to within 1/2 inch of the bottom and side crusts to make a pocket. Using a butter knife, fill each pocket with a generous tablespoon of fruit spread.
  • In a shallow bowl that is large enough to hold the 4 bread slices in 1 layer, mix together eggs, milk, vanilla and cinnamon. Soak the bread slices 2 or 3 minutes, turning them once.
  • Warm a large skillet on medium-low heat. Coat the bottom of the skillet with 1 teaspoon each of the butter and oil. Cook 2 slices of bread at a time for about 6 minutes, turning the slices several times, until both sides are nicely browned and crisp. Add the remaining teaspoon of butter and oil to the skillet and cook the final 2 slices of bread.
  • Serve hot, either plain or topped with yogurt.

I live N/E of Kansas City on 5 acres. I build trucks for Ford Motor Company. For fun I craft with Polymer clay. My favorite cookbook is a hard one. I have 20 or 30 of them, and have favorite recipes in all. My favorite type of cookbook has to be the fund raising cookbooks, with personal recipes. My passion is easy, to eliminate puppy mills. Control needless animal breeding, making sure you animal companion is spayed or neutered. Pet peeves. Easy, people who thoughtlessly take in an animal and neglect them.
