Eggy spelt bread with orange cheese & raspberries recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 medium eggs
  • 2 tbsp orange juice
  • 2 slices spelt bread, halved
  • 50g low-fat cottage cheese
  • 1 tsp orange zest
  • 1 tsp rapeseed oil
  • 50g raspberries
  • clear honey, to serve (optional)

Method

  • Beat the eggs and orange juice in a bowl wide enough to fit the bread in it. Soak the bread in the eggs and juice for 2 mins or so, turning halfway through.

  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the cheese and orange zest. Put the rapeseed oil in a non-stick frying pan over a high heat. When hot, add the eggy bread. Leave to cook for a couple of mins undisturbed, then flip and cook on the other side for another 1-2 mins.

  • Divide the bread between 2 plates, dollop the cheese on top, followed by the raspberries and honey, if you like.
