Main Ingredients
Instructions
Preparation Steps
-
Prepare the Bread
Slice the whole wheat bread into even pieces.
-
Mix the Mixture
In a shallow bowl, combine the unsweetened almond milk with xylitol (or your preferred sweetener) and ground cinnamon. Stir well until the sweetener dissolves.
-
Beat the Eggs
In another bowl, beat the two eggs until well combined.
-
Dip the Bread
Take each slice of bread and first dip it into the milk mixture, then coat it in the beaten eggs.
-
Arrange in Dish
Place the dipped bread slices into a lightly greased baking dish. You can arrange the slices separately or layer them like a pie to create a baked French toast casserole.
-
Pour Remaining Mixture
If you are creating the casserole-style bake, pour the remaining milk mixture over the bread slices.
-
Bake
Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
-
Coat with Mixture
While the French toast is baking, mix cinnamon and xylitol (or coconut sugar) in a shallow dish.
-
Serve
Once the baked French toast is out of the oven, coat each piece with the cinnamon-sweetener mixture while it’s still warm. Serve warm for a healthy, festive treat!
