Blueberry Skyr French Toast

Serving: Serves 4

Ingredients:

  • ¼ cup Icelandic Provisions Blueberry Bilberry Skyr (63 grams)

  • ¼ cup milk (60 grams)

  • ¼ cup heavy cream (60 grams)

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 egg

  • 1 teaspoon white sugar

  • Pinch of salt

  • 4 slices of day-old brioche

  • 2 – 3 tablespoons of butter for frying

Toppings:

  • Icelandic Provision’s Blueberry Bilberry Skyr

  • Fresh blueberries

  • Maple Syrup

  • Powdered Sugar

Method:

  1. In a wide shallow bowl, add blueberry skyr, milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, egg, white sugar and salt. Whisk everything together until full combined.

  2. Dip each brioche slice into the French toast custard mix until each slice is fully saturated. Set each slice aside as you dip the others.

  3. Heat up a cast iron pan to medium low heat. Once hot, add a tablespoon of butter so it sizzles.

  4. Once the butter fully melts, place the drenched French toast slices and let them cook until golden brown. This should take about a minute or so. Adjust the heat so you don’t burn your French toast. Once golden flip onto the other side.

  5. Once fully cooked, serve the French toast up and smear Blueberry Bilberry skyr, drizzle some maple syrup and add fresh blueberries. If you are feeling extra fancy, bring out he powdered sugar and give everything a good dusting. Enjoy!
