Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Bread (thick slices, such as brioche or challah)
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Mango (peeled and diced)
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
- 4 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and let it melt.
Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated but not overly saturated.
Place the coated bread slices onto the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining butter and bread slices.
While the French toast cooks, prepare the mango lime topping. In a small bowl, combine the diced mango, lime juice, lime zest, and honey. Stir gently until well mixed.
Plate the French toast slices and top each with the mango lime mixture.
Optionally, dust with powdered sugar and garnish with mint leaves for a fresh, decorative finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your tropical Mango Lime French Toast!
