This French toast is made a lot lighter really easily and there is no sacrifice on taste either.

Calories: 315kcal
Ingredients
- 4 slice of Whole wheat bread
- 2 Eggs
- 200 ml of Skimmed milk
- 0.5 teaspoon of Cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon of Ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon of Maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon of Vanilla extract
- 0.5 Orange juice and zest only
- 0.5 tablespoon of Butter
Instructions
- Add 2 Eggs, 200 ml of Skimmed milk, 0.5 tsp of Cinnamon, 0.5 tsp of Ground nutmeg, 0.5 tsp of Vanilla extract, 1 tbsp of Maple syrup and the juice and zest of 0.5 Orange to a bowl and mix well.
- Dip 4 slice of Whole wheat bread into the mixture one slice at a time until the mixture soaks into it.
- Add 0.5 tbsp of Butter to a pan and add the soaked slices of bread. Cook for around 2-3 minutes on each side, turned every minute or so.
Notes
- To freeze, allow to cool to room temperature and then individually wrap and then store in a freezer bag. Once defrosted you can reheat in the toaster.
- Try to use 2 day old bread, as this will stop the French toast from becoming too soggy.
- Make a toddler friendly version of this by leaving out the maple syrup and then cutting it in to sticks.
- You can lighten this up even more by using just egg whites, rather than whole eggs.
