During this week I woke up in the middle of the night and could not get back to sleep. So I turned on the tv and watched last weeks episode of Nigella Express. She made this Doughnut French toast. So when I got up for work in the morning, I just had to try it. It was really good. On Saturday I made it for Daniel, he liked it as well. This recipe is for one, so just increase to how many people you are making this for. This is in the Nigella Express Cookbook.

1 egg

jenndz-the leftover queen...you know you could almost eat it for dessert. :)
emiline..... anything thing with donut is good.... I agree. :)
That's how I usually make my french toast. What does it have to do with doughnuts? lol
How to eat a cupcake... Nigella ... added extra vanilla to this recipe. I believe it gives you the flavour of donuts...with the sugar coating outside..the french toast. :)
Thanks for the comment.
Watching food TV in the middle of the night is dangerous. You dream food all night and wake up desperately wanting it. Your french toast looks worth waking up for.
