French Toast Casserole (Healthy Tipping Point Recipe)
- Number of Servings: 2
Ingredients
Ingredients (for two servings): * 4 slices of whole wheat bread (crustier, the better) - ***I calculated stats using Ezekiel whole grain bread (80 cal per slice) * 4 eggs * 1 tablespoon vanilla extract * 1/2 cup almond milk (or your milk of choice) * 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon * 1 ripe banana (medium size) * Toppings: 4 T. Maple syrup (included in stats)Optional: almonds, raisins, or other fruit/nuts of preference.
* Preheat oven to 375.
* Chop bread into 1 – 2 inch strips. Place in small greased casserole dish (mine was an 8-inch round).
* In a bowl, combine eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla.
* Pour egg mix over bread and slice in a banana.
* Stir and let stand for a minute. Stir again, thoroughly coating all the bread with the egg mix. Pat down with spoon.
* Bake at 375 for 20 minutes. Remove, let stand for one minute, and slice (makes two servings).
* Top with nuts and maple syrup.
This would also be an awesome dish for a big brunch – just double or triple the recipe and make it in a larger casserole dish.
Serving Size: Makes 2 servings (approx. 2 slices bread each).
