Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.

  2. Take a slice of bread and layer it with a slice of ham, a slice of turkey, and a slice of Swiss cheese. Top with another slice of bread to make a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining slices of bread and fillings.

  3. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and nutmeg until well combined.

  4. Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, making sure to coat both sides evenly. Allow any excess mixture to drip off.

  5. Place the sandwiches in the prepared baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the sandwiches are golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  6. Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the sandwiches cool slightly before serving.

  7. Dust the tops of the sandwiches with powdered sugar and serve with raspberry jam on the side for dipping.
