Upgrade your breakfast game with this one-of-a-kind Hong Kong French Toast (HKFT). If you follow me on the 'gram, you're well aware of my infatuation with HKFT. There's more to come but this one is a show-stopper. This rendition incorporates a matcha-infused batter, brown sugar boba stuffing & sweetened condensed milk. The result is utterly addictive. The earthiness of matcha compliments the overall sweetness of the dish & a quick, shallow fry provides the perfect, crispy texture. The recipe makes one 3 to 4 stack french toast –– it can be shared between two but quite honestly, I devour the entire thing myself. If you would like to order the special tools needed for the recipe, I've included them below –– torch: https://amzn.to/3LWket5

Add oil to a deep skillet & heat to 375°F. Fry each side for 2 minutes, rotating frequently. Once crisp, remove from the oil & place on a drying rack. As it cools, mix white sugar & 1-2 teaspoons of matcha in a bowl / plate. Place the toast in it & coat all sides in matcha-sugar. Place on a plate. Brûlée with a torch, if desired. Top with a scoop of ice cream & finish with matcha-powdered sugar (to prepare, mix ~1/4 cup of powdered sugar with remaining matcha).
