A delightful twist on the classic Monte Cristo sandwich, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Ensure the mixture is smooth to coat the bread evenly.
Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides.
Let the bread soak briefly to absorb the mixture without becoming soggy.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the coated bread slices and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
Spread a thin layer of jam on one side of each toasted bread slice.
Use a spoon or knife to evenly spread the jam.
Layer turkey, ham, and cheese on half of the bread slices. Top with the remaining bread slices, jam side down.
Press gently to secure the layers together.
Place the sandwiches on a baking sheet and broil in the oven for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
Keep an eye on the sandwiches to prevent burning.
Sprinkle powdered sugar over the sandwiches before serving.
Use a fine sieve for an even dusting of sugar.
