Savoury crumpet French toast

Ingredients

Method

Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • ½ cup milk 
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • 4 store bought crumpets 
  • 50g butter
  • 4 bacon rashers
  • ¼ cup capsicum pesto
  • ½ avocado, thinly sliced 
  • Rocket and aioli of choice, to serve

Method

  1. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk and paprika with seasoning. Dip each crumpet into the egg mixture on both sides, then place into a hot, buttered pan.
