Sprouted French Toast

 

It’s been a while since I have made french toast, years probably, just too long. But we were craving something sweet without being overly so and this hit the spot!

I think what holds me back from making french toast is i often thing it’s a time consuming thing to make. But now when there is an abundance of time, I wanted to give it a go. In doing so I quickly remembered just how easy this dish actually is. Minimal effort, maximum reward. If you’re wanting to make a larger serving of this, you could always make the custard mixture the day before and just bake the toast in the oven instead of cooking it in a sauté pan!

Sprouted French Toast
Author: Consciously Coastal
prep time: 20 | cook time: 5-8 | Servings: 2

Ingredients:

  • 4 slices of bread, I used sprouted Ezekiel bread
  • 2 pasture raised eggs ⁣
  • ¼ c dairy free creamer, I used @nutpods ⁣
  • ¼ c dairy free milk, I used Califia Farms
  • ¼ c sweetner of choice, I used coconut sugar⁣
  • 1 ½ tbs cinnamon⁣
  • 1 tbs vanilla⁣
  • Pinch of Himalayan salt⁣
  • Toppings of choice⁣, I used fresh berries

Instructions:

  1. Whisk all ingredients besides bread and toppings together in a bowl
  2. Once fully combined transfer mixture to a casserole dish and lay your sliced bread flat throughout the dish. I like to pour some of the mixture on the upward facing side of each slice of bread. Allow to soak for 10-15 minutes. You might want to flip them halfway through just to make sure each slice is evenly coated.
  3. While the bread is soaking, prep your fruit, make yourself some coffee or tea, be productive, relax, whatever you need- and let the marinade work its magic ✨.
  4. Once the 10-15 minutes is up, remove the bread from the custard and cook French toast in a large sauté pan / griddle on medium-high heat until both sides are fully cooked and crisp (about 2-3 minutes each side depending on the thickness of your bread).
  5. Garnish with your toppings of choice, I used: blueberries, strawberries, granola, and maple syrup.

Boom, you just made yourself a delicious, easy, fun breakfast to celebrate making it through another week
