Monte Cristo Sandwich
Monte Cristo Sandwich
The Monte Cristo Sandwich is a bold twist on the classic ham and cheese, dipped in egg batter and pan-fried like French toast. Layers of ham, turkey, and Swiss cheese are nestled between slices of white or brioche bread, then griddled to a crisp golden brown. Finished with a dusting of powdered sugar and served with a side of raspberry or strawberry jam for dipping, it’s sweet, savory, and totally crave-worthy. Great for brunch, lunch, or a special breakfast treat.
