Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 slices White sandwich bread
- 6 slices Deli-style ham
- 6 slices Deli-style turkey
- 6 slices Swiss cheese
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 120 ml Milk
- 30 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil or butter
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 120 ml Raspberry jam
Instructions
Lay out the slices of bread and cut off the crusts. Cut each slice into quarters to form small squares (total of 48 squares).
Layer one piece of bread with a quarter slice of ham, a quarter slice of turkey, and a quarter slice of Swiss cheese. Top with another piece of bread to create a miniature sandwich. Repeat until all sandwiches are assembled.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, all-purpose flour, and salt until smooth to create the batter.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil or butter.
Dip each miniature sandwich into the egg batter, ensuring all sides are coated, then place it on the skillet.
Cook each sandwich for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and the cheese has melted. You may need to work in batches, adding oil or butter as needed.
Once cooked, transfer the sandwiches to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Before serving, dust the tops of the miniature sandwiches with powdered sugar.
Serve warm with raspberry jam on the side for dipping.
