Description

A delightful fusion breakfast treat combining savory seared beef, creamy melted cheese, and sweet blackberry jam, all layered between golden, buttery French toast slices for an irresistible sweet and savory flavor experience.

Ingredients

Bread and Egg Mixture

  • 4 slices brioche bread
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ cup milk

Filling

  • 4 oz thinly sliced steak or roast beef
  • 2 tbsp blackberry jam
  • 2 slices provolone or Swiss cheese

For Cooking

  • Butter for cooking

Instructions

  1. Prepare the egg mixture: In a shallow bowl, beat together the eggs and ¼ cup milk until fully combined to create the custard base for the French toast.
  2. Dip and cook the bread: Dip each slice of brioche bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated but not saturated. In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter and cook each slice of bread until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  3. Warm the beef: In the same skillet, add the sliced steak or roast beef and heat for 1-2 minutes until just warmed through, being careful not to overcook.
  4. Assemble the sandwich: Lay one slice of French toast on a clean surface, spread 1 tablespoon of blackberry jam evenly over it, then add a slice of provolone or Swiss cheese, followed by the warmed beef slices. Top with another slice of French toast.
  5. Grill the sandwich: Return the assembled sandwich to the skillet and cook over medium heat, pressing gently, until the cheese melts and the sandwich is heated through, about 2-3 minutes per side. Use additional butter if needed to prevent sticking and enhance browning.
  6. Serve: Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice in half if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy with your favorite side like greens or fries for a complete meal.

Notes

  • For jam variations, try fig or raspberry jam to experiment with different flavor profiles.
  • Pair this sandwich with fresh greens or crispy fries for a balanced brunch plate.
  • Use thick-cut brioche for a richer texture and better absorption of the egg mixture.
  • To make the sandwich ahead, prepare components separately and assemble just before grilling for best results.
