Prospect Hotel's Hazelnut French Toast

After a dreamy sleep you can smell the coffee in the morning from your room and if you are lucky they will be serving:

Whole Wheat Hazelnut French Toast

For two ( large portions)

Whole Wheat French Bread sliced in 1” thick pieces, 4 slices

3 large eggs

1/4 cup Half &Half

1/8 cup water

1/3 cup flour

2 Tablespoons Hazelnut syrup flavoring

Dash of salt

1tsp cinnamon

Chopped Oregon Hazelnuts

Process: Combine eggs, Half & Half, water , flour, syrup, salt, and cinnamon. Whip until batter is fluffy. Dip French Bread slices into batter and let soak for just a few seconds. Carefully place on low heat griddle such that batter drippings from bread are completely underneath each slice. Cook to a light brown. Flip and cook until center of bread “springs” back. - keeping heat low. Place two slices on plate dust with powdered sugar , sprinkle hazelnuts over top. Serve as the hotel does with a medium boiled egg, sausage patty and maple syrup. Then go for a walk!
