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
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup egg whites
- 1/2 cup non fat milk OR unsweetened almond milk, OR unsweetened rice milk
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 4 -6 slices whole wheat/grain bread (No sugar added)
- Maple syrup or honey for topping
Directions:
- Combine your egg whites, milk, cinnamon and vanilla in a bowl. Whisk until well blended.
- 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)
- Cook in 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.
- Plate your food and top with your favorite French toast toppings!

OMG, I cant wait for this.
Thanks for the recipe!
You’re very welcome! Let me know how you like it!
Chrystal – Glad you enjoyed it!
I make this all the time, we change the toppings: strawberries, bananas, fresh nuts, etc. It’s a go-to breakfast for the weekends!
Monica – That’s awesome!! 😀
add a smidge of nutmeg to the egg…. yumm
Joanne – Yum is right! 😀
This recipe looks great!! I love your blog so much; keep up the good work!! Also, do you know how many egg whites I would use if I didn’t have liquid ones? Thanks 🙂
Avery – I don’t use the liquid egg whites any longer. I just take out a half cup measuring cup and crack eggs until it’s filled up. The number will depend on the size of your eggs.
