Let me assure you, using whole wheat English muffins in place of regular French bread to make French toast is perfectly delicious!
You know how those mornings go. You want to eat a particular breakfast, but you don't have all the exact ingredients. Well, I wanted French toast and only had day old whole wheat English muffins in the pantry.
WOW! They turned out GREAT! My kids (who I thought would freak out) totally chowed down. I followed French toast recipe just as normal and everything turned out fine.
HERE'S ALL IT TAKES
- 6 slices whole wheat English muffins
- 2 fresh eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch of salt
- pinch of nutmeg
- 2 tablespoon butter for frying
- Pure Maple Syrup
Very Important First Step:
Heat oven to 400ºF degrees and heat up griddle pan on medium heat.
Mix the healthy egg substitute, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in a LARGE bowl; large enough to hold all 6 slices of bread.
Allow the bread to soak up all the liquid in the bowl.
Melt butter on griddle pan for an even coating. Add bread slices and cook for one minute on each side, until light golden brown.
Transfer bread slices to a ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from pan, drizzle with a little pure Maple syrup and serve HOT!
Tastes great with a side of oven fried bacon and fruit salad.
Great recipe. I’ll try them when I get home. But would they work with chocolate syrup ?
You’ll have to tell us.
I really enjoyed these with bacon, fruit, and orange juice. It was like being at the breakfast bar of some hotel. I felt like I was on vacation. I thought about stealing the soap from the bathroom down the hall, but I realized I would just be hurting myself
Yum! It looks good. Delicious! I love it.
Thanks for the great idea. I used coconut milk in place of the milk, and i didn’t do the oven portion of this recipe. Delicious!
Thank you, Marie!
I’ll have try your version next. You know, I’ve not tried coconut milk on its own. A sweet friend of mine, Cheryl, uses it in an awesome recipe where she boils the chicken in coconut milk. I’ll have to get that recipe from her. She had us over for dinner and that was an incredible dinner.
