Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 slices of Brioche
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 12 thin slices smoked ham
  • 2 cups grated Gruyère cheese
  • 2 Pete and Gerry's Organic Eggs
  • 3/4 cup whole milk
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • Raspberry preserves
  • Powdered sugar

Instruction

  • Warm a nonstick skillet over a medium heat while you prepare the sandwiches
  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F
  • Place the brioche on a wooden cutting board and spread 1 tbsp of the Dijon mustard on two of the slices
  • Add 6 slices of ham to each slice with mustard, followed by 1 cup of Gruyère on top of the ham
  • Place the remaining brioche slices on top of the cheese
  • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk and transfer to a shallow rimmed flatdish
  • Add the butter to the warm pan and let it melt until it's slowly bubbling
  • Take each sandwich and carefully place it into the egg mixture making sure to coat each side well
  • Transfer the dipped sandwiches to the pan and cook for about four minutes or until the bread is golden brown. You can lift one end of the sandwich up with a spatula to make sure it's not too brown.
  • Flip the sandwiches over and place the skillet into the oven and bake for another 4-5 minutes
  • The sandwiches should be golden and the cheese should be well melted
  • Transfer the sandwiches to a cutting board and slice in half. Sandwiches will be easier to slice if left for a few minutes
  • Place on a plate and use a sieve to dust generously with powdered sugar
  • Serve with raspberry preserves on the side for dipping
