Cherry French Toast Sandwich
• Roughly chop your cherries and add to a pan with a teaspoon of brown sugar.
• Briefly stir and heat on a medium heat for around ten minutes until they are broken down and syrupy.
• Allow to cool slightly.
• In a shallow bowl, crack in your egg alternative and pour in the milk.
• Whisk well and dip each side of your bread in the egg mix.
• In a separate small bowl add your Crème Fraîche and agave syrup and stir in the cherries.
• Heat a pan over a medium heat and cover with a little spray oil
• In the heated pan, lay down one slice of the bread before topping evenly with the cherry mix and placing the second slice on top, and pressing down gently.
• Cook for 3-4 minutes, then flip the bread over and repeat.
• Remove from the heat and enjoy!
