Ingredients

  • 5-6 thick slices of white or wholewheat bread
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • A tiny pinch of salt
  • 3 tbsp Ladismith Spreado (for pan-frying)
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Syrup, honey or chocolate spread for dipping

Method

  1. Cut the crusts off the bread and slice each piece into 3 or 4 equal vertical strips.
  2. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the sugar and cinnamon, then set aside.
  3. In a separate shallow dish, whisk the eggs, milk, vanilla essence, and salt until fully combined.
  4. Melt a generous tablespoon of Ladismith Spreado in a large frying pan over medium heat.
  5. Working in batches, quickly dip each bread strip into the egg mixture (don’t soak them too long!). Place in the hot pan and fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
  6. As soon as they come out of the pan, immediately roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until evenly coated.
  7. Stack them high and serve warm with a side of syrup, honey or chocolate spread for dipping!

 

Freezer Hack: Let cooked dippers cool completely, freeze in a single layer on a tray for 1 hour, then transfer to a zip-lock bag for up to 3 months. Reheat straight from frozen in the air fryer at 180°C for 3-4 minutes!
