Berry Blast French Toast in 10 Minutes
Start your day with a burst of flavor! This berry-infused French toast recipe is quick, easy, and loaded with antioxidants.
Ingredients
- 4 Bread slices (white or whole wheat)
- 2 Eggs
- 1/4 cup Milk
- 1/2 cup Mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- Maple syrup (optional)
Prepare the Berry Egg Mixture
In a blender or food processor, combine the eggs, milk, half of the mixed berries (1/4 cup), sugar, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth. If you don't have a blender, mash the berries well and whisk everything together thoroughly.
Soak the Bread
Dip each slice of bread into the berry-egg mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated. Let the bread soak for about 30 seconds per side.
Cook the French Toast
Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the soaked bread slices in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Sprinkle the remaining berries (1/4 cup) on top of the French toast during the last minute of cooking.
Serve
Remove the French toast from the skillet and serve immediately. Drizzle with maple syrup, if desired.
