Breakfast

I am forever trying to find new ideas for easy breakfast dishes. Having a toddler means that I have to cook breakfast every morning. Since I don't normally eat in the morning I have to find recipes that I can modify to feed 1. I read a recipe for peanut butter and jelly stuffed french toast. So I modified it a bit to fit my needs. One major change is I do not use peanut butter. The boy is allergic to peanuts, so I have to find alternatives. He loves almond butter, but I don't love the price. So he usually gets almond butter for nutbutter and jelly sandwiches, and I cook with sunflower butter. Sunflower butter is also a big hit with him and not quite as expensive at almond.You can get both almond butter and sunflower butter at Fresh Market.   OK my version of the Taste of Home french toast recipe.
Serves 2 (because if course I had to try it too)
4 Slices of bread (we love honey wheat)
1 egg
about a 1/4 cup of milk
Sunflower butter
Jelly
Powdered sugar
Butter.
cooking spray
Heat skillet to med/high heat. Spray pan with cooking spray.  In bowl mix egg and milk, set aside. Spread sunflower butter on 2 slices of bread, and top with other 2 slices, making 2 sandwiches. Dredge sandwiches in egg mixture, and put in pan. Cook on each side for about 3 mins. You cook this a little longer than most french toast to make sure any egg mixture that got on the sunflower butter has time to throughly cook. Remove from pan and place on plate. Lightly spread some butter on both sides of the sandwiches, then top them with jelly and a light sprinkle of powdered sugar. YUM! My toddler ate his sandwich, then proceeded to eat half of mine.
