5-Ingredient English Muffin French Toast

Weekend mornings just got sweetener with this 5-Ingredient English Muffin French Toast recipe. We keep all of the same ingredients and flavors you know and love about French toast, but make one simple swap that you’ll wish you would’ve tried sooner: Instead of plain old white bread that’s void of nutrition, we use whole wheat English Muffins as the base of this easy French toast recipe. You’ll still get to enjoy the delicious combination of eggs, vanilla and cinnamon but with more crunch, more fiber and more flavor.

How to Make English Muffin French Toast

This 5-Ingredient English Muffin French Toast recipe follows similar steps to a classic French toast recipe:

Mix up a combination of eggs, unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract and cinnamon to soak the bread in. In this case, we’re using halved whole wheat English muffins instead of regular bread.

Once the English muffins are full soaked, heat up a greased skillet over medium heat and cook each half of the English muffin for three to four minutes per side. Plate them up and enjoy with your favorite healthy toppings!
