Clean Eating Coconut French Toast

I came across this recipe on the "Committed to Get Fit" blog (http://melaniemitro.blogspot.com.au/).  She has some awesome clean eating recipes which I have begun to enjoy myself in recent weeks, some of which I have adapted to suit my personal tastes.  Worth checking out her recipes and fitness tips! Anyways, I am totally LOVING this coconut French Toast at the moment.  It's totally decadence without the guilt! (Oh and I got lazy and just copied the recipe from her page, so please forgive me lol!)



Ingredients

  • 3 egg whites
  • 1/2 cup light coconut milk- you can find this at giant eagle.
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 4 slices clean, whole grain bread such as Ezekiel bread
  • 1/4 cup dry coconut flakes
  • Honey for topping

Directions
Step 1 – In a medium size mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites, coconut milk, vanilla extract and cinnamon.

Step 2 – Submerge the bread in to the mixture, being sure to turn it several times to get all sides coated and wet.

Step 3 – Using a non-sick pan and a very light coat of olive oil from a sprayer, cook on medium heat until the bread is cooked through, paying special attention to being sure that the egg and the middle of the bread slices are cooked through.

Step 4 – Put the toast on a plate and sprinkle each piece with 1 tbsp. of the coconut flakes.

Step 5 – Add a little honey to taste and serve.
