Aruna, tried ur eggy bread, liked it. Thanx for ur receipe
Have a great day
hi aruna i admire ur participation in about everything. Your forum topics india shopping and others are very useful. I used to make this as a quick breakfast wen i get up late in the morning. But ur recipe seems differnt and tastier. nice idea to keep it oven to cook the inner part better.And I use sugar. think should not heat honey. Good job
madhavi thank u so much for ur comment

Aruna,
I am going to try this tom. for breakfast will let you know. I had bought half and half for Butter Chicken, I have about 1 1/2 cups remaining so that will be an ideal choice here.

Can this be prepared without egg? Will it taste good without egg ?
lalikrish , the main ingredient for this is "egg ", so……….?
if u try without egg it will taste like ordinary butter toast
Mom makes with milk powder, sugar, a little bit of milo, cardamom powder… it tastes good… you can try without egg…. :D:D:D Tastes differs but tastes good..
Aruna, just curious.. what kind of bread is that? Multigrain?? or French?
mullai its a french bread (fresh from the oven )and i got it from Garden fresh -in "cuisine de france " aisle i think those guys will make fresh bread each and everyday, its good and better than the regular wheat bread …..
