Servings: 1
- 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
Whisk together milk, egg, vanilla, cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
Preheat a non-stick skillet on medium heat. Add butter.
One at a time, dip bread and let excess egg mixture dip off.
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.
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.
