Instructions

French Toast

1. Slice off 4 thick slices of your homemade bread, about 1/2 to 2/4 inch thick. Stale bread works better for french toast so it's a good idea to do this the night before
2. Mix the french toast ingredients together in a bowl and whisk until smooth
3. Transfer the batter to your tray or dish
4. Add the bread to the butter and soak for 2-3 minutes per side
Note: now is a great time to make the blueberry sauce so it's ready before the french toast
5. Heat a cast iron pan on medium and generously coat with butter
6. Transfer the bread to the pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until your desired doneness
7. Optional: Re-coat with batter and fry a second time
8. Top with blueberry sauce and other toppings and enjoy!

Blueberry Sauce

1. Once you have whisked together the french toast ingredients, add blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and water to a small pot or saucepan
2. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat
3. Dissolve 2 teaspoons cornstarch in 1.5 tablespoons water
4. Once boiling, add the cornstarch mixture to the sauce and stir
5. Lower heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring often, until the sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes
6. Remove from heat and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving
