Breakfast Monte Cristo

The Winning C4K Cage Free Eggs recipe created by Nate Campbell, Food City Culinary Trainer!

To celebrate and launch our partnership with Coalition for Kids, we brought together three incredible chefs to create healthy, kid-approved breakfast recipes using Natural Choice cage-free eggs and let the real judges decide.

After tasting all three, the kids cast their votes… the winner is Chef Nate’s Breakfast Monte Cristo!

Ingredients

  • 2 Slices Brioche Bread

  • ¼ c. Heavy Cream

  • 1 Natural Choice egg

  • Cinnamon

  • 2.5oz Maple Honey Ham (Sliced thin)

  • 1.5oz Mild Cheddar Cheese

  • 1.5oz Baby Swiss Cheese

  • 1.5 oz Maple Syrup

  • Vanilla

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and preheat grill, griddle, or stove to medium-low heat.

  • Combine heavy cream, egg, 1oz of maple syrup, a splash of vanilla, and a dash of cinnamon into a bowl and whisk until combined.

  • Portion your ham and cheese (for ease of assembly).

  • Place portioned ham in a pan and toss it into the oven for a few minutes, until the ham is hot.

  • Place the 2 slices of brioche bread in egg mixture for a few seconds to allow bread to soak up the mixture.

  • Butter or lightly oil the cooking surface and place bread slices on the cooking surface and begin to cook (45seconds-2 mins per side).

  • Once the first side is flipped, add your slices of cheese and top it with your hot ham.

  • While the other side is cooking, place the remaining .5oz of maple syrup in a serving bowl for dipping.

  • Once the next side is cooked/browned to your liking- place it on top of your ham to create your sandwich. 

  • Plate sandwich by cutting on an angle and dusting with powdered sugar.
