French Toast with Goat Cheese



INGREDIENTS

French Toast
1/2 loaf of day old french bread
6 eggs
1 tablespoon milk
1 shot banana liqueur, or brandy
1 tablespoon sugar

Goat Cheese Topping
4 oz soft goat cheese
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 tablespoon bourbon
1/2 tablespoon agave nectar or honey

1.  Prepare the goat cheese topping by mixing all of the goat cheese ingredients together in a medium size bowl.  Refrigerate until needed.

2.  In a large bowl combine the eggs, milk and banana liqueur.  Slice the french bread into inch thick slices and soak each slice in the egg mixture.  Pre-grease a large skillet with olive oil, and then lay out the bread slices.  Cook on medium heat until each side turns a golden brown.

3.  Transfer two slices per plate.  Generously spread the goat cheese mixture over each slice.  Liberally sprinkle powdered sugar over the french toast, and serve.
