Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Whole wheat bread
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cups Skim milk
- 1 large Banana
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Raisins
- 2 seconds of spray Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, skim milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
Peel and mash the banana in a separate bowl until smooth, then fold it into the egg mixture.
Preheat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat it with non-stick cooking spray.
Dip each slice of whole wheat bread into the banana-egg mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated but not overly saturated.
Place the coated bread slices onto the preheated skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
As the bread cooks, sprinkle raisins evenly on top of each slice while the first side is cooking.
Once cooked, remove the French toast from the skillet and place it on serving plates.
Serve warm with your favorite low-calorie syrup, fresh fruit, or a dollop of yogurt, if desired.
