How to Cook Healthy Food for Kids - French Toast

Made with whole grain bread, this becomes a nutritious choice for kids' breakfast or lunch.

The ingredients are per person:

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• whole grain bread
• large egg
• 3 Tbsp. liquid (water, milk, soya milk, or?)
• dash of salt
• dash of cinnamon
• Pam olive oil spray, or other oil to grease pan
• icing sugar (optional, to sprinkle on top after cooking)
• butter or margarine
• maple syrup
• pie plate
• frying pan & pancake flipper

1. Spray the frying pan with Pam. Preheat frying pan over medium heat.

2. Break egg into the pie plate. Add liquid, salt and cinnamon, then beat with a fork until the yolk and white of the egg are completely mixed.

3. Place bread slices in the egg mixture. Let sit for about 20 seconds on each side, so that the bread soaks up some of the egg mixture.

4. Place soaked bread in preheated frying pan. Brown one side, turn, then brown the second side.

5. Remove from frying pan. If you are using icing sugar, sprinkle or sift it over top of the french toast now. Serve hot with margarine/butter and maple syrup.
