French Toast Breakfast Sandwich
Breakfast has always been one of my favorite meals! Since changing my WW plan a few months back, I started coming up with new ways to enjoy my zero point and low point foods. I’ve always loved eggs and eat them almost daily, but sometimes you have to mix it up! One of the influencers I follow on Instagram, Kait Davis, inspired this recipe. Instead of coffee creamer, she uses a protein powder as the “custard” to dip the bread in. I didn’t have the protein powder she uses on hand, so I thought coffee creamer would add great flavor without adding too many extra calories. If you’re counting WW Points, this sandwich comes in at around 5 points, but even if you’re not, it’s still delicious! Hope you enjoy this as much as I do!
2 slices of bread (I prefer Sara Lee Whole Grain 45 calorie per slice bread)
3 whole eggs
2 tsp Sugar Free or Fat Free Vanilla Coffee Creamer (any brand- just make sure it’s 15-25 calories per serving)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Cooking Spray
4 slices Hormel Natural Choice Smoked Deli Ham
1 slice Sargento Ultra Thin Sharp Cheddar Cheese
Sugar Free Maple Syrup (Just make sure it’s 10 calories per serving.
Start by warming up a small skillet with some cooking spray on medium high heat. Whisk together 2 of the eggs with the coffee creamer and cinnamon. Dip the bread in one slice at a time fully coating each side. Once the skillet is warm enough, place the bread to the skillet for 1-2 minutes until browned, then flip to the other side. Do the same with the second slice and set aside on a plate. Add a little more cooking spray to the pan and begin cooking the last egg until desired doneness. (I prefer mine between over easy and over medium.) Once the egg is fully cooked lower the heat to low and start assembling the sandwich by adding a slice of bread back to the skillet, the cheese, the ham, the cooked egg and then the last slice of bread. I cover the sandwich with a lid and flip after only a few seconds to avoid browning the bread any further. You just want to melt the cheese at this point! 🙂 Once the cheese is melted, add it back to the plate. I like to slice it into fours and then drizzle on the maple syrup. Enjoy!
