Give French Toast A Savory Twist To Switch Up Breakfast
For Dinner
BY JULIA HOLLAND
To convert French toast from a sweet breakfast to a savory dinner, omit the typical baking spices and extract or swap them for savory spices and dried herbs.
You can make savory French toast as simple or elaborate as you'd like. Swap the sweet garnishes and condiments for savory sauces or a sprinkling of salty cheese.
Use premade spice and herb mixtures, bottled sauces, packaged shredded cheese, and canned or jarred foods, or add fresh raw veggies or repurpose leftovers.
You can top a cheesy French toast with a drizzle of sriracha, marinara, or lemon-infused aioli and toppings like pickled veggies, canned roasted peppers, beans, and crispy onions.
