This blissful breakfast is an homage to our little brunch spot on the East end where I have enjoyed many Sunday get togethers with my kids over coffee and juicy conversation.
It is the salty sweet combo of this decadent concoction that kept us going back for more and here it is...
Make a few rashers of bacon. I suppose any yummy meat would work but it needs to be fried up a bit so it isn't soggy.
Now for the French toast:
In a bowl, combine 1 or 2 eggs, a bit of milk, a good hit of cinnamon and a sprinkle of ground cardamom. This should be yellow and eggy, not overly milky. Take a slice of your favorite bread and dunk it in for a good soak, then into a non-stick pan sizzling with a pat of butter and a drop of oil (so the butter doesn't burn). On a medium heat, let this reach a golden brown and flip so both sides are cooked.
Place the French toast on a baking pan.
Make an over easy egg, not over cooked, and place it on the French toast. Then a layer of bacon. Then the killer move...a few slices of strong cheddar cheese.
Under the broiler for a few minutes, once the cheese sizzles and is melted and golden, it is done!
Place this beauty on a dish and pour some fabulous Canadian Maple syrup on top, and a few turns of freshly ground black pepper.
Get a good cafe au lait or cappuccino, and DEVOUR! Its crazy good, really.
