Can you believe that until this morning, I had never made french toast?! A travesty, since I LOVE french toast!
Feel free to drool. I’m pretty sure the people who saw me out on my balcony taking pictures of my food in my pajamas did.
Almond Butter French Toast with Cinnamon Apple Yogurt Topping
Ingredients:
(serves one)
- 2 thick slices of whole wheat bread
- 1/3 C whole milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp. almond butter
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
Instructions:
1) Mix all french toast ingredients (except bread) in a large, deep bowl or pan. Make sure it’s mixed well (you might want to whisk the egg first, separately), then place the two pieces of bread into the liquid. (I had to do this one piece at a time since my bowl was too small!)
2) Let the bread sop up the mixture for about a minute, then flip to the other side, waiting another minute.
3) Once all the liquid has been absorbed into the bread, place the bread in a skillet (coated with cooking spray) on medium heat. Cook a couple minutes on each side, until lightly browned.
4) Serve topped with maple syrup and more cinnamon, OR with my Cinnamon Apple Yogurt Topping!
Cinnamon Apple Yogurt Topping Ingredients:
- Half an apple, chopped
- 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/3 C whole milk plain yogurt (Greek or regular)
- 1 tsp. maple syrup
Instructions:
1) Place the chopped apple into a microwave safe bowl and microwave a minute or so until apple is soft.
2) Add in other ingredients, stir, and pour over french toast!
Enjoy!
