Ingredients

  • Whole wheat bread 3 slices
  • Eggs 2 large
  • Skim milk 1/4 cup
  • Strawberries 1 cup
  • Nonfat Greek yogurt 1/2 cup
  • Honey 1 tbsp

Method

  1. Prepare the egg mixture. In a medium-sized bowl, crack the 2 eggs. Add the 1/4 cup (60ml) of skim milk. Whisk together until fully combined and smooth. This mixture will soak into the bread to give it a creamy texture.
    Tip: Use a fork or a small whisk for easier mixing.
  2. Soak the bread slices. Take each slice of whole wheat bread and dip it into the egg and milk mixture. Let each slice soak for about 20 seconds on each side, allowing the bread to absorb the liquid but not become too soggy.
    Tip: Hold the bread briefly above the bowl after soaking to let excess drip off, preventing soggy toast.
  3. Cook the French toast. Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. You can lightly spray or brush the pan with a small amount of cooking oil or butter if desired. Place the soaked bread slices onto the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
    Tip: Adjust the heat if the bread browns too quickly to avoid burning.
  4. Prepare the toppings. While the French toast cooks, rinse and slice the strawberries if not already sliced. Measure out the nonfat Greek yogurt and honey.
    Tip: Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor.
  5. Assemble and serve. Place the cooked French toast slices on plates. Top each slice with a generous spoonful of Greek yogurt, then evenly distribute the sliced strawberries on top. Drizzle honey over everything for a natural sweetness.
    Tip: Serve immediately while warm for the best taste.

Pro tips

  • Use day-old bread if possible; it soaks up the egg mixture better without falling apart.
  • To keep cooked French toast warm while finishing the batch, place them on a baking sheet in a low oven (about 200°F/90°C).
