Ingredients
- whole wheat bread 2 slices
- large eggs 2 units
- blueberries 1/2 cup
- low-fat yogurt 1/2 cup
- butter 1 tsp
Method
-
Prepare the egg mixture.
Crack the 2 large eggs into a shallow bowl. Whisk them well until the yolks and whites are fully combined and slightly frothy. This mixture will soak the bread to give it a rich flavor and texture.
Tip: Use a wide bowl so the bread slices fit flat and soak evenly. -
Soak the bread.
Dip each slice of whole wheat bread into the egg mixture. Let it soak for about 20 seconds on each side, ensuring the bread absorbs the egg but does not become too soggy and fall apart.
Tip: Gently press the bread down while soaking to absorb the egg mixture evenly. -
Heat the pan and melt butter.
Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon of butter and let it melt completely, coating the pan surface evenly.
Tip: Medium heat prevents burning while cooking the toast through. -
Cook the French toast.
Place the soaked bread slices in the pan. Cook for about 3 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly crisp. Use a spatula to carefully flip the slices halfway through cooking.
Tip: If the bread browns too quickly, reduce the heat slightly to cook through without burning. -
Plate and add toppings.
Transfer the cooked French toast to a plate. Spoon the 1/2 cup of low-fat yogurt over the top, then scatter the 1/2 cup of blueberries evenly. Serve immediately while warm.
Tip: For extra flavor, you can drizzle a small amount of honey or sprinkle cinnamon on top.
Pro tips
- Use day-old or slightly stale bread for better soaking and texture.
- If you prefer, warm the yogurt slightly before topping for a cozy contrast.
