Personally, I think plain french toasts are kind of boring but a lady from work told me that one of her friend made this recipe for her one week-end and it was delicious so I decided to give it a try! Now, this recipe is not an “actual” recipe so make it the way you want!

French Toast with a TwistRecipe Source: Pascale from work and me 🙂


Course: Breakfast    Yield: 4 servings    Prep Time: 5 mins    Cook Time: 10 mins  


Ingredients

  • 8 pieces of bread (whichever bread is your favourite, I like 12 grain bread)
  • 4 egg whites (trying to make this recipe with less calories) you can put the whole eggs
  • 3/4 Cup of milk
  • 1 stick (more or less) of butter
  • 1/2 Cup of chopped walnuts
  • 1/2 Cup of brown sugar
  • 4 ripped peaches, sliced
  • 1/2 Cup of maple syrup (to drizzle on the toasts)
  • 2 Tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Start the oven at 450F.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the egg whites, half of the cinnamon and the milk.
  3. Heat up a large pan and keep the heat at medium high. Add in a table spoon of butter. Let it melt in the pan.
  4. Dip each piece of bread in the egg mixture and cook in the pan (do 4 at a time, if you can).
  5. Flip the bread once the cooked side is brown. Take them out of the pan when the other side is also brown.
  6. When you are done cooking the bread, take a cookie sheet (or two if you dont have enough space) put parchemin paper on it and place the bread pieces side by side on the cookie sheet.
  7. Place peaches slices on each toast, sprinkle them with brown sugar (about a tablespoon each). Put a doll-up of butter on top and sprinkle walnuts on top. Put the cookie sheets in the oven, on a high rack for the element to be close to the toasts. Bake for about 10 minutes (until the butter and the sugar create a tiny crust on the bread or are bubbling. Take the french toasts out of the oven and sprinkle some more cinnamon on them.
  8. Enjoy!
