Magnificent organic rhubarb with french toast - delicious

French toast with rhubarb

Rhubarb is one of the delights during the British Hungry Gap – a perennial crop that gives freshness in Spring.

Here’s a simple but luscious French toast recipe, from edinburghfarmshop.co.uk.  Alternatively, stewed rhubarb is excellent with overnight oats.

    Ingredients

  • 3 large rhubarb stalks
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence (or ½ tsp vanilla paste)
  • 1-2 tbsp of caster sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 300ml of milk
  • 4 slices of white loaf bread
  • 2-3 tbsp of butter
  • 2 tsp of icing sugar
  • TO SERVE:
  • Greek yogurt
  • Pistachio nuts
  • Honey or maple syrup

    Method

  1. Simmer rhubarb in a drop of water with some caster sugar for 6-8 minutes, or until the rhubarb is soft but still holds its shape. Be careful not to overcook as it becomes soft very quickly.
  2. Beat the eggs with milk, icing sugar and vanilla. Dunk the bread and fry in butter until golden brown on both sides.
  3. Serve with Greek yoghurt, pistachio nuts, honey or maple syrup.
