Ingredients
- 1 loaf French baguette
- 4 tablespoons Fruit jam (e.g., strawberry, raspberry, or apricot)
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Water
Directions
Step 1
1. Slice the baguette: Cut the baguette into individual slices, about 1-inch thick. You will need about 4 slices per serving.
Step 2
2. Toast the bread: Lightly toast the baguette slices in a toaster, grill pan, or under the oven broiler until golden and slightly crisp. This step is optional if you prefer soft baguette.
Step 3
3. Spread the butter: While still warm, spread a thin layer of unsalted butter on each slice of baguette.
Step 4
4. Add the jam: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of your chosen fruit jam onto each slice. Spread evenly with a knife or back of a spoon.
Step 5
5. Heat the milk: In a small saucepan, heat the whole milk over medium heat until warm but not boiling.
Step 6
6. Make chocolate mixture: In a small cup, whisk together the unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and water until a smooth paste forms.
Step 7
7. Mix chocolate milk: Stir the chocolate paste into the warm milk until fully dissolved and evenly combined. Continue heating for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 8
8. Serve: Pour the chocolate milk into mugs. Plate the baguette slices with jam on a tray or individual plates. Serve immediately for a satisfying breakfast!
