How to Make the Recipe
Now, let’s dive into the steps to create this delightful dish:
- Heat a griddle or a skillet over medium heat. Coat it with either coconut oil or butter for that perfect golden crust.
- While the griddle heats, crack the eggs into a large bowl. Add half of the coconut sugar and the almond milk, then whisk them together until well combined. Sprinkle in some cinnamon and the remaining sugar for that extra flavor kick.
- Dip each slice of Dave’s Killer Bread into the egg mixture, making sure to coat both sides but not completely soaking the bread. We want it to be moist but not falling apart!
- Place the coated bread onto the heated griddle and allow each side to cook for about 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Once cooked, remove the French toast to a plate and get ready to add your favorite toppings!
Pro Tips for Making the Recipe
Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your French toast turns out perfectly every time:
- For a richer flavor, use whole eggs instead of egg whites.
- Experiment with different types of milk, like oat or soy, for a unique twist.
- If you prefer a sweeter French toast, feel free to add more coconut sugar or even a drizzle of maple syrup on top.
- For a fun twist, try adding vanilla extract or nutmeg to the egg mixture.
- Make it a family affair! This is a Breakfast Kids Can Make with a little supervision.
