WHOLE WHEAT FRENCH TOAST RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat Griddler, fitted with the griddle plates, to 375°F (190°C), and grease with nonstick spray.
• Use a whisk to beat the eggs in a 9x13-inch (23x33-cm) casserole dish until smooth.
• Add the milk, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt, and whisk until smooth and well combined.

• Transfer the soaked bread to the Griddler and cook for 10 minutes.
• Sprinkle with powdered sugar, drizzle with maple syrup, and serve.
• Enjoy!

WHOLE GRAIN FRENCH TOAST WITH FRESH PAPAYA

Steps:

• 1. Peel the papaya and cut it in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to remove the seeds. Slice the papaya into cubes (you should have about 1 cup).
• 2. In a large shallow bowl whisk together the milk, egg, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, soaking both sides so that the bread is well coated and has absorbed the custard.
• 3. Melt the butter in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the bread and cook, working in batches, if necessary, until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Add additional butter to the pan if the bread seems to be sticking.
• 4. Transfer the French toast to two serving plates and drizzle with maple syrup, if desired. Top with the chopped papaya and serve.
