The Kitchn: Savory Sourdough French Toast with Mushrooms
Savory French toast is definitely a thing. Sure, you can just make toast, but with just a few extra ingredients you can whip up a nourishing, exceptional meal, ready in minutes. Plus, who doesn't love breakfast for dinner?
Buttermilk and spices (including cayenne, nutmeg, and lots of freshly ground black pepper) make a delicious custardy batter. The addition of meaty mushrooms, crunchy radishes, and heaps of greens -- tossed in freshly squeezed lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil -- is the perfect topping. Add a dollop of creme fraiche for a slightly more indulgent take, and dinner just got exciting.
