The lovely smell of...

...fried eggyyyyyyyy bread... with cinammon sugar. Mmmmmmmmmmmm! :) And a nice cuppa hot chocolate. *bliss* That is my brunch sorted.

I had a hankering for  eggy bread today as I haven't had any at all this year or indeed even the end of last year.

I don't know how you do your eggy bread but ours in Malaysia have always been sweet. Just plain sweet fried eggy bread is called "French Toast" and eggy bread slathered with strawberry jam is called "Bombay Toast".  I have made coconut eggy bread before which is diiiiiiiiiivine which the bread is dipped in desiccated coconut after being dipped in sweet eggy mixture then lightly fried in butter.

Anyway, I was wondering, is eggy bread in Britain any different to mine? Is it savoury rather than sweet? I could google, but I would rather like to know what my lovely friends think/say. :)

How do you do your eggy bread? Or whatever you call them. :)

Either just egg and bread as part of a fry up or on its own with sugar. Jam sandwiches dipped in egg and fried are 'blackbirds' and cheese sandwiches 'cheese dreams'. So, either sweet or savory. Coconut eggy bread sounds fab!

I love the name "blackbirds" for jam sandwiches dipped in egg! How apt!! :D

Thank you for the info- love the names! :)
