Ingredients

🍋For filling

• 50g cream cheese

• 50g ricotta

• 20g honey

• Lemon zest

🍞For French toast

• 40g milk (I used oat)

• 1 egg

• 1 tsp cinnamon

• 2 slices brioche bread (can use GF)

• Butter to cook

🍞Method

• In a bowl mix the cream cheese, ricotta, honey and lemon zest until getting a homogeneous creamy mix

• In a separate bowl beat the milk, egg and cinnamon together

• Cut two thick slices of brioche bread and flatten them in the middle with a spoon to create space for the ricotta filling

• Place the ricotta filling on top of one of the slices with a spoon without reaching the edges. Cover with the second slice on top

• Soak this toast in the milk and egg mix for 2 minutes on each side so the bread soaks up

• Melt a knob of butter on a frying pan at medium eat. Add your French toast and cook on each side for a couple of minutes until golden brown

• Serve hot and dust with icing sugar

FAQS and Tips

• Use high quality ricotta if you can for best results!

• If you cannot find brioche you can use regular bread by removing the crust and leaving it to soak for 5 minutes in each side
