Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Whole wheat bread
- 4 large Egg whites
- 0.5 cups Low fat milk
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 spray Cooking spray
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup or honey (optional, for serving)
- 1 cup Fresh fruit (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg whites, low-fat milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray.
Dip each slice of whole wheat bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated. Allow any excess mixture to drip off.
Place the coated bread slices onto the preheated skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and slightly crispy.
Repeat the process with the remaining bread slices, reapplying cooking spray to the skillet as needed.
Serve the French toast warm, optionally topped with a drizzle of maple syrup or honey and a side of fresh fruit.
