This French toast recipe is a healthy and delicious way to start your day! Made with whole-wheat bread and low-fat milk, it's a perfect breakfast for kids and adults.
In a deep bowl or dish, whisk together the egg, milk, vanilla and cinnamon until well combined. Keep whisking until everything is completely combined and the mixture is smooth.
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and spray a small amount of butter spray or any other oil spray. You'll know it's ready if a drop of water sizzles on the surface.
1 spray butter spray or any oil spray
Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are coated. Let the bread soak up the mixture for a few seconds.
4 slices toast
Place the bread slices on the hot skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the edges become golden and crispy.
Using a spatula, flip and cook on the other side for another 2-3 minutes.
Add your favorite fruits as a garnish and enjoy!
Notes
Tips and Variations:
For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg or allspice to the egg mixture.
Top your French toast with fresh fruit, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
You can use different types of bread, like brioche or challah, for a richer French toast. Just keep in mind that this will change the nutritional information.
Make it fun for kids by letting them choose their own toppings!
Serving Suggestions:
French toast is delicious on its own, but you can also serve it with a side of scrambled eggs or a bowl of fresh fruit salad.
