Ingredients

  • 2 slices whole grain bread or any bread of choice
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 Tablespoons milk (I use oat milk)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of cinnamon optional
  • ½ Tablespoon butter or coconut oil for cooking
  • fresh berries or banana slices and yogurt for serving
  • peanut butter or another nut butter for drizzling

Instructions

  • Whisk together milk, egg, vanilla, cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
    Eggs whisked in a bowl.
  • Preheat a non-stick skillet on medium heat. Add butter.
  • One at a time, dip bread and let excess egg mixture dip off.
    Dipping a slice of bread into the whisked egg.
  • Once butter is melted, place bread slices in pan and cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom side is golden brown, but not crisp. Flip bread and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from pan and repeat the process with the second slice, unless you have enough room to do both at the same time.
    Two slices of bread soaked in egg being cooked on a nonstick pan.
  • Let French toast cool and cut into 4 pieces. You can also cut off the crust for smaller babies.
  • Serve with fresh berries, banana slices, a drizzle of nut butter (optional) and yogurt for dipping. If your toddler is old enough and you'd like you can also serve with maple syrup, as a drizzle or for dipping.
