Delicious pizza toast

Appetizers - Delicious pizza toast by Simina K. - Recipia

Delicious pizza toast is made with bread slices dipped in egg and milk before they go in the oven. Processed cheese, salami in two layers, onion, mushrooms and semi-hard cheese go on top; they soften and hold everything together, while the bread stays soft in the middle. I eat it warm, with a green salad on the side. Prep: 10 minutes. Cook: 10 minutes. Total time: 20 minutes. Servings: 5. Approximately 300 kcal and 14 g protein per serving.

Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 30 ml milk
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 5 slices bread
  • 5 slices Delaco processed cheese
  • 10 slices Saxon salami
  • 5 thin slices onion
  • 50 g mushrooms
  • 5 slices semi-hard cheese

Preparation

1. Beat the egg with the milk, salt and pepper until smooth. 2. Dip the bread slices in the mixture one at a time and arrange them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. 3. Put one slice of processed cheese and two slices of salami on each slice of bread, one before and one after adding the onion and mushrooms. Finish with one slice of semi-hard cheese on each. 4. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 10 minutes, until the semi-hard cheese melts.

Notes

Keep any leftover slices in a container in the fridge for up to 3 days; the bread softens, so the texture is better on the day you bake it. For a gluten-free version, use 5 slices of gluten-free bread; the dish contains egg and dairy. A simple green salad on the side is enough, without any extra bread. White bread with a fairly close crumb holds the topping better than very fluffy bread, which goes limp after soaking up the egg. Thinly sliced mushrooms will heat through during the short baking time; if they’re wet after washing, dry them well. The part to do quickly is dipping: leave each slice in the mixture only long enough for the egg to touch both sides, without letting it soak up the milk. Soft bread can get soaked and break when you move it; transfer it to the paper with a wide spatula. If the top browns too quickly, put the tray on the middle rack.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use canned mushrooms?

Yes. Drain 40 g of mushrooms and pat them dry well before putting them on the bread.

How long should I leave the bread in the egg mixture?

About 2 seconds on each side is enough; if you leave it longer, the bread may absorb too much liquid.

Can I replace the semi-hard cheese with mozzarella?

Yes, use 75 g low-moisture mozzarella, cut into thin slices.
