4. Triple Berry French Toast

French Toast

3 egg whites
4 slices stale whole-wheat bread
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
A pinch of cinnamon
½ cup non-fat milk

Syrup

2 cups frozen berries
1/3 cup distilled or mineral water
3 teaspoon maple syrup
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

In a large bowl, mix the milk, egg whites, vanilla, and cinnamon. Pour the mixture on a plate then coat every slice of bread. Let the mixture soak the bread really well on both sides.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a spray of cooking oil. Add the toast then cook until golden brown before flipping to the other side. After all slices of bread are done, set aside.

In a separate saucepan, mix all the syrup ingredients and simmer for at least 5 minutes to soften the berries. Mash the berries then bring to a boil. Reduce the liquid to desired thickness. Scoop the syrup on top of the French toast and serve.
