French Toast with Whole Wheat Bread, Cinnamon, and Fresh Blueberries

Ingredients

• Whole wheat bread 3 slices
• Eggs 3 large
• Cinnamon 1 tsp
• Fresh blueberries 1 cup
• Maple syrup 2 tbsp

Method

1. Prepare the egg mixture. In a shallow bowl, crack the 3 large eggs. Add 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Whisk together thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and the cinnamon is evenly distributed.
   Tip: Use a fork or a whisk and beat until the yolks and whites are fully combined for an even coating.
2. Dip the bread slices. Take each slice of whole wheat bread and dip it into the egg and cinnamon mixture. Let the bread soak for about 20 seconds on each side to absorb the mixture but avoid making it too soggy.
   Tip: Hold the bread gently and allow it to soak without breaking. If your bread is very thick, soak a little longer.
3. Heat the pan. Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. You can lightly grease the pan with a small amount of butter or oil if desired to prevent sticking.
   Tip: Make sure the pan is hot before adding the bread to get a nice golden crust.
4. Cook the French toast. Place the soaked bread slices on the hot pan. Cook each side for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Flip carefully using a spatula to avoid breaking the slices.
   Tip: Adjust heat as needed to avoid burning; medium heat works best.
5. Serve with blueberries and maple syrup. Transfer the cooked French toast to plates. Top each serving with half a cup of fresh blueberries and drizzle 1 tablespoon of maple syrup over the top.
   Tip: Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.

Pro tips

• Use slightly stale whole wheat bread for better soaking without falling apart.
• If you prefer a richer flavor, add a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of salt to the egg mixture.
