None of these touch your facncy? You can always prepare Hong Kong French Toast. It has a sweet jam in the middle of two slices of bread and then deep fried in egg and is found in tea shops all over Hong Kong. Epicurious has a recipe for it that calls for toast filled with peanut butter, soaked in a milk and egg mixture, fried until brown and topped off with butter and condensed milk. You’re welcome!
