A slow morning ritual in toast form. Ceremonial grade matcha meets golden brioche and warming blueberries.
SERVES 2
INGREDIENTS
- 4 thick sliced brioche or bread of choice
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoons coconut oil
- 0.3 cups almond milk
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoons Ceremony Matcha
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 0.5 cups frozen blueberries
- 3 tablespoons water
STEPS
- Make the matcha batter: Whisk together 1 egg, 0.3 cups almond milk, 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract + 1 tbsp of 3 tablespoons maple syrup until combined. Add 1 tablespoons Ceremony Matcha and whisk until completely smooth with no lumps.
- Soak the brioche: Slice your 4 thick sliced brioche or bread of choice into 1 inch thick slices. Submerge each slice in the matcha batter, coating both sides evenly. Allow to rest for 1 minute so the bread fully absorbs the mixture.
- Toast to golden: Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a pan over medium heat ensuring the surface is evenly coated. Add your soaked bread and cook for 4 minutes per side until deeply golden. Repeat with remaining slices.
- Stew the blueberries: Add 0.5 cups frozen blueberries, 2 tbsp of 3 tablespoons maple syrup + 3 tablespoons water to a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer gently until the blueberries are soft but still holding their shape about 5 to 8 minutes.
- Assemble and serve: Layer your matcha french toast, spoon over the warm stewed blueberries + finish with an extra drizzle of 3 tablespoons maple syrup.
