Serves 2
In large, shallow bowl, gently beat together 2 eggs, 50ml milk and a little salt and pepper.
Cut 3 slices of slightly stale bread in half width-ways and set aside.
Melt 15g unsalted butter with a dash of sunflower oil in large frying pan over medium heat.
Soak bread in egg and milk mixture on either side, until soggy.
Fry bread in batches for 2 mins on each side until mottled brown and crisp, adding a little extra butter for each slice.
Serve hot, fresh from the pan.
For a sweet version, mix 1tbsp icing sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon into the egg mixture before frying then serve with maple syrup.
