Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup strawberry preserves (or other favorite)
• 8 slices day-old wheat bread
• Confectioners' sugar, optional
• Or use fresh fruit slices in place of preserves.
• Coat slices in crushed cereal for crunchy 'breading' instead of confectioners sugar, if desired.

Preparation

Step 1

1. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, milk and salt; set aside. Spread preserves on four slices of bread; top with the remaining bread. Trim crusts; cut each sandwich into three strips.

2. Dip both sides in egg mixture. Cook on a lightly greased hot griddle for 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Dust with confectioners' sugar if desired.
