Healthy Lean French Toast recipe made with whole wheat bread and egg, enhanced with cinnamon and sweetener for a delicious, syrup-free breakfast option.

YIELDS 1 Serving

1 slice whole wheat bread(approx. 80 calories, 15g carbohydrate per slice)
1 large egg, or egg substitute to equal one egg
Dash ground cinnamon
1/2 pkt. artificial sweetener, or to taste
Drop of artificial maple flavor, or vanilla extract, optional 

1. Break egg into a shallow, wide bowl; beat until the yolk and white are well blended.
2. Add cinnamon, sweetener, and flavor; and beat into egg until blended.
3. Place the slice of bread in the bowl and allow to absorb the egg mixture, turning over the bread to completely saturate both sides.
4. Place the bread in a small, non-stick skillet that has been lightly coated with cooking spray.
5. Pour any left-over egg mixture over the bread.
6. Cook bread, turning at least once, until both sides are lightly browned and the egg is cooked.
7. Serve immediately. (No syrup needed -- the flavor is cooked in!).
