WOW! We just made these for friends who were passing through town and stopped in for lunch. This is a definite do again, and again...... With the 4 of us there were 10 thumbs up. If I had said I'd make these again for supper, they would have been tempted to stay over. Great recipe

Two words for this recipe, TRY IT. These sandwiches were amazing. Even my "I don't like maple syrup" daughter loved the syrup. The rosemary infuses a wonderful flavor and I know I'll be making that again for other meals. The only difference I used was challah versus brioche based on availability at our Shop Rite. I'm not sure how that changes the texture of the sandwich, but these were moist and creamy on the inside and crunchy and perfect on the outside. Thanks so much for sharing!

I just made this for breakfast. It was wonderful! They have the most fantastic crust on them. The syrup was perfect on them too!

Love the egg-white-and-panko idea -- great finish to an already great sandwich!

aaaaaah! I was so in the mood for this yesterday, but I couldn't think of what they were called. I kept thinking Croque Madame. I can't wait to try this. Mmmmm.

Isn't a croque Madame a monsieur made with turkey? All three fall into my category of great sandwiches

I guess of have seen them all kinds of ways. Bechemel with fried egg called a Madame by Thomas Keller, Jaque Pepin making one with chicken instead of ham called it a Madame but you are right Loves Food, traditionally, a Madame has the fried egg but I also think the Monsieur is served with bechemel and no egg. I will take one of each I think.

Actually a croque monsieur is made with ham and bechamel and cheese on the outside, whilst a croque madame is the same with a fried egg on top!

I get my daughters home for a week this year at Christmastime, so, if we don't make these on Christmas morning we will for sure try them for another meal; breakfast, lunch or dinner! Thank you!

This was so good. I had a totally different pic in my mind but I couldn't stop eating it.
