Whole Grain French Toast Recipes

WHOLE WHEAT FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Cut the bread into desired shape (we made triangles).
• Whisk together the eggs, cream or milk, and vanilla in a shallow dish.
• One-by-one dip the bread into the egg mixture until it is evenly coated on both sides. Let the excess run off before transferring the pieces to a plate.
• If you have a griddle turn it to 325 degrees F. If you don't have a griddle don't fret...any old sauté pan will do. If using a pan place it over medium heat.
• Melt a teaspoon or two of butter in your pan/griddle then add the first batch of battered bread. The key is for the finished product to be cooked all the way through by the time the outside turns brown so the heat should not be too high.
• Cook until golden brown on both sides. Add a little more butter for a second batch if necessary. Serve warm with pure maple syrup and a side of fruit. Enjoy!

WHOLE GRAIN FRENCH TOAST WITH BLACKBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Place half the blackberries in a bowl; mash into a juicy pulp. Transfer to a small saucepan with the remaining blackberries. Cook over low heat until warm, 3 to 5 minutes. Add honey to the compote.
• Beat egg yolk, egg whites, nutmeg, cinnamon, and ginger together in a bowl. Soak each slice of bread in the mixture for 10 to 15 seconds per side.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the soaked bread slices until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Ladle the warm berry compote on top.

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.
• Dunk the bread in the batter, 4 slices at a time, until just soaked. Do not let the bread soak in the wet ingredients too long or it will become too wet and fall apart when you attempt to pick it up.
• 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.
