Healthy French Toast

So many breakfasts foods are heavy, fried, or drowned in butter! This Healthy French Toast recipe is a lighter version of the traditional recipe and will give you a great start to your day without leaving you feeling weighed down and guilty!



Healthy French Toast (2 servings)
  • 4 slices of bread (I used a 100% whole grain bread)
  • 1/4 cup low fat or skim milk
  • 1 whole egg
  • 2  egg whites
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • Cooking spray

1. Beat together the two egg whites, one whole egg, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon in a bowl and then transfer to a shallow dish. (I found it was difficult to get it mixed really well if I did it in the shallow dish so that's why I mix it up in the bowl first and then transfer it to a shallow dish, like a pie plate)

2. Spray a nonstick skillet with the cooking spray and set to medium heat.

3. Dip each slice of bread in the egg mixture, being sure to turn over to coat both sides well. Place the bread in the heated skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until browned on both sides.

4. Repeat for all slices. Serve with sugar free syrup, nuts, fruits, or your topping of choice.


I served this with two slices of turkey bacon, fresh sliced pineapple and sugar free syrup(not pictured)! If you have never tried turkey bacon, I encourage you to do so! You will be amazed as to how much it taste like regular bacon but without all the extra fat!

The skinny:
Two slices of this healthy french toast pack approximately only 150 calories! Just be sure not to totally ruin this healthy breakfast with fattening or calorie dense toppings!

Enjoy!! :)
