Mini Strawberry French Toast




Ingredients
- 1 cup sliced strawberries
- 2 tsp sugar (white)
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp milk (full or low fat)

To Serve
- Maple syrup (not optional!)
- Confectioners sugar (icing sugar), for dusting (optional)
- Extra strawberries (optional)

Lightly whisk the eggs, milk and salt in a shallow bowl.

Melt butter in a large fry pan over medium high heat.

Dip each side of the bread slices into the egg, 3 seconds on each side. Place in the pan and fry each side for 2 1/2 minutes, until it is nicely browned.
