Drunken Eggs Toast recipe

2 servings

4 eggs

2 tablespoons brandy-based orange liqueur (Grand Marnier®)

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

2 thick slices egg bread

3 tablespoons mascarpone cheese

3 tablespoons blueberry preserves

1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar

1/4 cup clarified butter

1/2 cup real maple syrup

Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).

In a mixing bowl, beat eggs well.

Stir in Grand Marnier and nutmeg.

Soak bread in eggs for 30 seconds on each side.

Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat.
