This recipe is a way of combining breakfast with dinner in a big way! This recipe combines French Toast as the bun for a great burger. The burger has a special sauce which is the same as the fast food Big Mac. This sandwich has also been compared to a Monte Cristo Sandwich.
For many, french toast with a burger is a difficult thought to process, however, when french toast is made according to this recipe, you will find that the Burger on French Toast is one of the most delightful tastes that you could find.
When people think of french toast, they think sweetened French toast. The toast does not have to be the sweet version. For instance, the french toast I make includes vanilla and cinnamon, I would leave both of those two out of this recipe.
What type of bread should I use?
You want to grab a loaf of bread that you can slice yourself, or one that has thick slices. The bread needs to be a hearty bread that can hold up to the rest of the ingredients.
What is this Special Sauce?
Simply put it is a combination of mayonnaise, ketchup (or french dressing) and pickle relish. I know it is hard to believe something so famous is really so simple to make.
Could I use meat other than ground beef in this recipe?
I would imagine that you could, I am not sure how the other options would taste as a french toast big mac. You could definitely make it with Breakfast Sausage.
Can I store these?
You would be best to not assemble the sandwich until you are ready to serve them. When done this way, you could definitely store the different parts of the sandwich separately in the refrigerator.
