"The edges should be nice and crispy by now."

French Toast with fresh fruit. A very healthy breakfast, which is also very filling.

A day later than you are used to, this lovely breakfast recipe is online. I am working on a lot of things at the same time for my blog and that means that I need to be planning everything. I did that last week, but Thursday night when I went to bed I thought oh no tomorrow is Friday! There must be a new blog online on Friday and I still had to write it.

Since a few weeks Jens and I started in the gym, so yesterday morning I started with a class of Body Balance. After that I made a start with my blog, but in the afternoon I had a very nice appointment at a lovely hotspot in Papendrecht. And at night Jens surprised me with a dinner in a lovely restaurant, and of course as a foodie you don't say no to food! After all it was a good lesson for me to plan more and work ahead a bit more, that way I can do everything I love and everything will be posted on time.

One of the things that keep me busy is the translation of my website. I see relatively much visitors from America and also from Brazil on my website. Of course they do not understand a thing on my site, because everything is in Dutch. Besides that Organic Happiness is an English name and to be able to inspire more people with my recipes, I chose to also make an English variant of my website. You should be able to change your preferred language. Besides that I am also working on optimizing the layout of the website, later more about both subjects.

I would love to tell you something about this recipe now. From when I was a kid I remember eating french toast. My mum always had a day off on Tuesday and she made them for me and my sister. Of course we used white bread (the way it should be) and we decorated them with lots of sugar, I loved them as a kid!! Suddenly last week I had cravings for french toast and I made my own healthy version of them, without sugar and with brown bread. Do you read with me for this easy recipe?

Preparation time:     2 minutes
Baking time:              4 minuten per toast
Amount:                      3 toasts (1 portion)
Special products:

Lactose free

Nut free

No refined sugars added

100% organic ingredients

Ingredients
1 egg                       
7 grams cinnamon           
10 grams honey
60 milliliters almond milk
3 slices of bread*

Optional (decoration)
Fresh fruit                ​Cottage Cheese

* It doesn't matter if the bread is a few days old.

​How to make it?
Put the egg in a plate and beat the egg fluffy with a fork. Make sure all the pieces of egg are beaten well. Continue doing this until you have an airy mixture. Once you have beaten the egg fluffy, you can add the cinnamon, honey and almond milk into the plate. Mix the ingredients very well and make sure everything is perfectly mixed together.

Grab a slice of bread and put it in the mixture in the plate. Make sure the bread is soaking up the mixture. Turn the bread around and make sure this side also soaks up the mixture. By doing this the taste of the mixture will be taken over by the bread. You can now bake the french toast. Heat a small amount of coconut oil or butter in a frying pan and lay one slice of bread in the pan.

Bake the toast for approximately 2 minutes on one site and then flip the toast. The edges should be crispy by now. Bake also for approximately 2 minutes on the other side. Continue to do so also for the other two slices of bread. If you add some more eggs, milk and cinnamon, you can even make some more french toast. 

The natural french toast tastes delicious. I decorated them with fresh fruit and cottage cheese.

Have fun making this easy and organic french toast and enjoy eating them!
