Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp sugar (25 g)
- ¾ cup milk (2 dl)
- 0.5 tsp ground cardamom
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 6 slices of bread
- 1 tbsp butter for frying (15 g)
Instructions
Make the custard
- In a wide, rimmed dish, whisk together: 2 eggs, 2 tbsp sugar (25 g), 2 dl milk (200 ml / ¾ cup + 1 tbsp), 0.5 tsp ground cardamom, 1 tsp ground cinnamon.
- Whisk until smooth.
Soak the bread
- Add 6 slices of bread to the custard. Let them sit for a few minutes, turning once, so they soak up the mixture evenly.
Fry until golden
- Heat 1 tbsp butter (15 g) in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the soaked bread slices until golden brown on both sides—about 2–3 minutes per side.
