"It tastes like pancakes and smells like French toast bread! Can we eat this for breakfast every morning?!" -- combined quote from my two daughters :)
Quick and Healthy French Toast Quiche
1/2 c egg "beaters" (or 2-3 whole eggs)
1/4 c milk
1-2 pieces toast, ripped in pieces (high quality bread)
1-1.5 tsp cinnamon
1 Tbsp chia seeds (for a surprisingly sort of sausage-y texture/taste
...not that I've had sausage in the last couple of decades!)
1 tsp pure maple syrup (optional, if you want extra sweetness!)
Combine all ingredients and cook in microwave for ~2 min.
Drizzle a splash of pure maple syrup for an authentic French toasty taste, and enjoy :)
NUTRITION NOTES
- Maple syrup is better than refined sugar, but it's still sugar! So just a splash!
- Ideally, the eggs and milk should be organic :) Costco's Kirkland egg whites at least contain very few extra ingredients, as opposed to Egg Beaters.
- For bread, I prefer a "sprouted grain" or homemade from our bread maker. Please at least use a 100% whole grain bread.
Makes 1-2 servings.
Eat as single serving, or divide mixture in to bowls to cook, or cut in half after cooking to share.
