Indulge in this delicious breakfast treat of thick slices of bread stuffed with creamy Nutella and cooked to perfection.

Ingredients

3	eggs
1	cup milk
2	teaspoons cinnamon
1	teaspoon sugar
3	Thick slices of Bread (Brioche/French/other Whole Loaf)
	Nutella (3-6 tablespoons)
	butter (4-6 tablespoons)
	Confectionary Sugar for topping
	Strawberries, Bananas, Raspberries (optional for garnish)

Instructions

• 1. Select the desired size for your French toasts and carefully cut the bread into halves or quarters.
  2. Create a pocket in each piece of bread and generously fill with a luxurious tablespoon of Nutella. Seal the edges securely to prevent any leakage. For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a slice of banana alongside the Nutella.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and sugar, whisking vigorously until the mixture becomes frothy.
  4. Immerse each Nutella-filled bread slice into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow the bread to soak for approximately 30 seconds on each side. For easy cleanup, place the soaked bread on a rack over parchment paper to drain any excess liquid.
  5. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until it becomes very hot, being cautious not to burn it.
  6. Carefully place each egg-soaked bread slice into the hot butter, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crisp. Remember to cook the edges as well for a uniform texture.
  7. Transfer the cooked French toasts to a serving plate, dust with a sprinkle of powdered sugar, and garnish with fresh fruit such as strawberries, bananas, or raspberries. Serve immediately to enjoy this delightful dish at its best.
