Cooking Instructions and Tips

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

b) In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, 1 tbsp of water and 25g of the caster sugar. Stir on medium heat, squashing the blueberries as they cook, until they are jammy and deep purple, 4-5 mins. Set aside to cool.

c) Meanwhile, lay the bacon in a single layer onto a lined baking tray and bake on the middle shelf of your oven until golden brown and crispy, 10-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.

a) In the meantime, in a large bowl, mix 25g of the caster sugar with the cinnamon and a pinch of salt. TIP: Keep the remaining caster sugar for another recipe.

b) Stir in two thirds of the creme fraiche and the egg (see pantry for amount).

b) Halve the burger buns, then soak each bun half in the cinnamon creme fraiche mixture.

a) Melt the butter (see pantry for amount) in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

b) Once hot, fry the creme fraiche soaked burger buns until golden, 3-4 mins on each side.

c) Stack 2 pieces of French toast on each serving plate, then top with the blueberry sauce and a drizzle of the remaining creme fraiche. Top with 3 rashers of bacon per stack to finish.

Enjoy!
