Description
Indulge in the delightful fusion of chai spices and matcha green tea with these irresistible Chai Matcha French Toast Sticks. Crispy on the outside and pillowy soft on the inside, these flavor-packed bites are a must-try for breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
– 8 slices thick-cut bread
– 4 eggs
– 1 cup milk
– 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
– 1 tablespoon matcha green tea powder
– 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
– 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
– 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
– 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
– 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, for frying
Instructions
1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, matcha powder, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg until well combined.
2. Dip each slice of bread into the matcha batter, ensuring both sides are evenly coated.
3. In a large skillet or griddle over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the battered bread slices and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
4. Remove the French toast sticks from the skillet and transfer to a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
5. Serve the Chai Matcha French Toast Sticks warm, with your favorite toppings such as powdered sugar, maple syrup, or a dusting of additional matcha powder.
Notes
For best results, use day-old or slightly stale bread, as it will soak up the batter better. Feel free to experiment with different types of bread, such as challah or brioche, for a richer texture. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
