Introduction

This is adapted from Jillian Michaels' Making The Cut book. She recommends sprouted grain bread, but I couldn't find any. She also uses 3 tsp (1 tbsp) Spelnda but I found that too sweet.

Ingredients

    1 egg white, beaten
    1 cup half & half (I used non-fat, but that uses corn syrup so be warned!)
    2 tsp Splenda (I found a tablespoon too sweet and didn't do any "dusting" at the end. If you don't use artificial sweeteners then ONLY dust with the sugar at the end, otherwise you need a lot more sweetener.)
    1 tbsp cinnamon
    1 tsp nutmeg
    1/4 tsp salt
    6 slices Natural Ovens Weight Sense Bread (I used multigrain, 100 calories per 2 slices)

Directions

Beat the egg white with the cup of half and half, then add spices and mix until the cinnamon is no longer clumpy.

I liked toasting the bread beforehand, but this is mostly uneccessary. Warm up a non-stick pan to medium heat (NOT a cast-iron skillet! Those are too porous!)

Let the bread soak in the milk mixture either 20 seconds per side or 1 minute on one side and then splash the other side. Depending on the thickness of the bread, you just need it to soak into the center. Lay a soaked slice on the hot pan and let cook.

I had to toast each side twice to get it to my liking, but if you only flip it once it will be fine. It took about 1 to 1.5 minutes per side, so I just soaked more break in the meantime.

The recipe is for 6, but I recommend doubling it! Then you can just throw the extras onto a pan in the morning and have fast French Toast on the go!!
