How to Make Monte Cristo Sandwich
- Preheat your griddle or large skillet over medium heat.
- Butter one side of each slice of brioche bread.
- Spread Dijon mustard on the unbuttered side of four slices of brioche.
- On each of the four mustard-side-up bread slices, layer the following: 1 oz Gruyère cheese, 2 slices turkey sausage, 1 oz Gruyère cheese, 2 slices turkey sausage, and top with 1 oz Gruyère cheese.
- Top each cheese-and-sausage stack with a remaining slice of brioche, mustard-side down, creating four sandwiches.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 2 tablespoons heavy cream, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper.
- Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
- Place the sandwiches on the preheated griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
- Remove from the griddle and let rest for a minute.
- Slice each sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately with a generous helping of fried onions.
