Description
A wholesome take on classic French toast made with whole grain bread, almond milk, and natural sweeteners—perfect for a nourishing breakfast.
Ingredients
4 slices whole grain or sprouted bread
2 large eggs
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
Coconut oil or butter, for the pan
Optional Toppings:
Fresh berries
Maple syrup
Powdered sugar (light dusting)
Instructions
Make the Batter: In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, almond milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and maple syrup until well combined.
Preheat Pan: Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with coconut oil or butter.
Dip Bread: Dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side.
Cook French Toast: Place soaked bread onto the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve: Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
Notes
Use gluten-free bread if needed.
For extra protein, add a scoop of vanilla protein powder to the egg mixture.
Make ahead and store in the fridge for up to 3 days — reheat in toaster or skillet.
Great for both kids and adults looking for a healthy breakfast option.
