French toast

Traditionally french toast is for breakfast or brunch, delicious but loaded in calories since it usually made with cream, brioche bun and a bit of whipped cream. This is a stripped-down version using pantry ingredients.

If you are looking for a more traditional version, then sub out the whole wheat bread with brioche, and the 2% milk with cream.

Don’t forget to experiment with the flavors! We prefer to add more cinnamon and change spices (e.g., cardamom, cinnamon and ginger are good combinations).
