Superfood French Toast

This is another awesome way to more than double the nutritional content of what normally is a very basic breakfast or brunch. It's a simple French Toast with a bunch of super accessories. Remember my earlier post about doing a similar thing to a plain waffle? Using good quality ingredients really makes a huge difference in something that has little value to something that is very good for you. We like sprouted bread around here but you can use any whole grain bread that you like. Sprouted bread is generally gluten-free and sprouted grains are always superior to the non because your body can digest them much easier. Use a farmer's fresh egg, your own or an organic one. I've used mashed up banana in this one but I've also made the same thing with sweet potato puree. It's like a sweet potato pancake. I paired it with fresh picked berries from my organic garden which always tastes like the success of love and labor. This breakfast has 10 grams of protein, less than 300 calories and is packed with plant based fiber, antioxidants, amino acids, omegas, lignans, essential nutrients + minerals, immune stimulants, probiotics and beneficial bacteria that soothe the digestive system.

INGREDIENTS
Whole grain, sprouted bread
coconut oil for the pan
1 egg
2 tablespoons coconut milk or plain coconut creamer
vanilla
cinnamon
bee pollen
chia + flax powder
almond meal
1|2 banana, mashed
pinch of salt
fresh berries
plain, greek yogurt
chopped walnuts or pecans

DIRECTIONS
Mix everything from the egg to the banana into a wide bowl suitable for dredging. Adjust the coconut milk if the batter seems too thick. I don't usually give exact amounts in recipes like this because you can just add a pinch of everything and it always turns out right. It is not an exact science and anyone can do it. Warm the coconut oil in a non-stick pan. Dredge your bread through the batter and cook it about 2-3 minutes on each side. I always know it's time to flip when I can smell the cinnamon. Top your toast with the yogurt, berries and nuts. This is about as close to a healthy doughnut as it gets, people. It tastes like sin, it's so good. Every ingredient serves your body's higher purpose. This recipe makes 2 or 3 pieces.

ENJOY!
