Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Whole grain bread
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons Pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil or cooking spray
- 0.5 cup Fresh berries (optional, for topping)
- 1 teaspoon Powdered stevia or monk fruit sweetener (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, unsweetened cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until smooth and free of lumps.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with coconut oil or cooking spray.
Dip a slice of whole grain bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated but not overly soaked.
Place the coated bread onto the heated skillet. Repeat for the remaining slices and cook in batches if necessary.
Cook each slice for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crisp on the edges.
Remove the French toast from the skillet and plate. Repeat with the remaining slices of bread.
Serve warm, topped with fresh berries and a sprinkle of powdered stevia or monk fruit sweetener if desired for an extra touch of sweetness.
Enjoy your guilt-free chocolate French toast immediately!
