Remove the crust on all sides of the bread and cut it into four equal squares. Make sure the slices are equal to get a better-looking sandwich and make it easier to pan-fry the sides evenly.
Spread peanut butter or salad dressing on each slice. You can alternate it for your 3-layer sandwich.
In a bowl, whisk together three eggs and 20ml of milk until well blended. This is also the part where you can strain the egg mixture to make it smoother for dipping.
Dip the entire sandwich into the egg mixture. The edges should be well-coated without oversoaking. Oversoaking can cause it to fall apart when pan-fried.
Heat a bit of butter in a pan over low heat. When the butter is melted and starts to bubble, place the sandwiches in the pan.
Fry the sandwich on all sides until each side turns golden yellow with a bit of crust. It should have a bit of brown for a crispier crust.
Finally, drizzle some condensed milk, maple syrup, or honey on top for additional sweetness and flavor.
