Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup low FODMAP milk (options: lactose-free whole milk, almond milk, macadamia milk, or oat milk certified low FODMAP)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
  • 3 teaspoons unsalted butter
  • 12 slices low FODMAP bread (options: Udi’s Gluten-Free White Sandwich Bread, BFree White Loaf)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • Maple syrup, to taste (ensure it is not HFCS)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Egg Mixture:
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, low FODMAP milk, vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon until well combined.
  2. Preheat the Skillet:
    Heat 1 teaspoon of butter in a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Swirl to coat the pan evenly.
  3. Dip and Cook the Bread:
    Dip each slice of low FODMAP bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides evenly but not soaking it through. Cook the slices in batches for 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and slightly crisp, adding more butter to the pan as needed.
  4. Make the Cinnamon-Sugar Coating:
    In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon with the sugar. Spread the mixture onto a plate.
  5. Coat the French Toast:
    Once the French toast slices are cooked, press each side lightly into the cinnamon-sugar mixture for a sweet, flavorful finish.
  6. Serve and Enjoy:
    Plate the French toast warm, topped with maple syrup, fresh low FODMAP fruits, or lactose-free whipped cream as desired.
