Ingredients
4 eggs
4 slices thick white bread, cut in half diagonally
12 slices of bacon
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 large plum tomatoes, cut in half lengthwise
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons chile oil
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons basil leaves, torn
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Preheat the broiler. Put the eggs in a bowl and beat until mixed. Add plenty of salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture into a large, shallow dish, then dip the slices of bread in the egg mixture, coating them all over, then set the dish aside for a few minutes to let the egg soak into the bread.
Meanwhile, broil the bacon for 1 to 2 minutes on each side until crisp. Transfer to a low oven to keep it warm.
Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a skillet until hot. Add the tomatoes and sprinkle with the sugar. Sauté for 1 to 2 minutes on each side until carmelized. Sprinkle with the chile oil and remove from the heat. Transfer to a plate and put in a very low oven to keep warm.

| Smoked Salmon is my favorite! I'm glad to see a recipe that uses it, since not many do. | |

| "French Toast with Smoky Bacon and Spiked Tomatoes" sounds a little crazy to me. I love all things French toast, but I've never thought to put bacon on it. | |
