Clean Eating French Toast

Is French toast really French? Does anyone know? I mean, if the French invented this, I think I may need to relocate. I know they are culinary geniuses and all, but da-anggg! French toast R.O.C.K.S!

I’ll be adding this to my Saturday morning repertoire with my munchkin man. He loves it too. Here’s how I adapted an old recipe to a clean eating version.

Clean Eating French Toast
1/2 cup egg whites
1/2 cup non fat milk OR unsweetened almond milk, OR unsweetened soy milk
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp. vanilla
Whole wheat/grain bread (No sugar added)
Agave or maple syrup to taste

Ingredients

Directions
Step 1 – Combine your egg whites, milk, cinnamon and vanilla in a bowl. Whisk until well blended.

Step 2 – Soak your bread in the mixture until it’s partially saturated (Don’t let it get too soggy or it will be a drag to get it out of the bowl)

Step 3 – “Fry” on a non-stick pan without any oil. Keep the heat low to medium low so it doesn’t burn. Cook a bit longer than you would regular french toast to be sure the egg gets cooked at the lower temperature.

Step 4 – Plate your food and top with your favorite French toast toppings!

Eat and Enjoy!

Munchkin Helpers:

If you have little ones, here’s how they can help (With close supervision, of course).

Let them add the ingredients to the bowl, stir and soak the bread. They can also top their own French toast. Just set up the toppings like a buffett line with lots of healthy toppings. They’ll be happy as clams!

Note: Nutritional Content will vary depending on bread used.

Caution: Any time a child is in the kitchen, they will require close supervision. Munchkin Helpers suggestions should be applied with common sense to your own child, taking their own capabilities into account. Do not assume that because it says here that your child can do something, that they can, in fact do it. Please use common sense when in the kitchen with your child(ren).
