We hope you love it! Egg and Garden Tomato Sammies Ingredients Serves 4 4 tablespoons butter, divided 3 teaspoons freshly chopped herbs, such as rosemary, chives, thyme, and oregano 8 slices crusty bread 4 eggs 1 large tomato, thinly sliced Directions Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a small saucepan. When melted, remove from heat, add the freshly chopped herbs to the butter, and gently stir. Spoon the herb butter onto the bread slices, using the back of the spoon to smear evenly. Arrange the buttered bread slices on a baking sheet and place in the oven for 5 minutes, or until toasted and golden. While the bread is toasting, heat a medium cast-iron skillet. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Gently crack the eggs into the skillet and cook for 2 minutes. Using a spatula, flip the eggs over and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove the bread from the oven. Place an egg atop four of the bread slices. Arrange a few of those delicious tomato slices atop each egg. Close each sandwich with the remaining slices of herby-buttery toasted bread. And enjoy! Recipe is featured on page 31 Plum Clafoutis Ingredients Serves 4 10-15 ripe plums, pitted and cut in half 6 tablespoons dehydrated whole cane sugar, divided 3 eggs 1 1/3 cups whole milk (or cream if you're up for it!) 1/3 cup organic, all purpose, unbleached flour or sprouted whole wheat flour 1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest 1 tablespoon vanilla extract Small pinch sea salt Small pinch freshly grated nutmeg Directions Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place the plums, cut side down, in a baking dish. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons of the dehydrated whole cane sugar. In a food processor or high-powered blender, blend together the remaining 3 tablespoons of dehydrated whole cane sugar, eggs, milk, flour, lemon zest, vanilla, salt, and nutmeg. Blend for 1 minute, or until frothy and well combined. Pour the egg mixture over the plums. Transfer the dish to the oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until fragrant and golden. The clafoutis will puff up as it cooks so you can tum on the interior oven light, pull up a chair, and watch the magic happen. Not that any sane person would do such a thing. Ahem.
