How to make a Healthy French Toast Recipe using Cinnamon Bread

in Healthy Food on 02/25/20

Anyone else obsessed with cinnamon bread around here? Today I’m going to share a healthy and super easy French Toast recipe. Plus, how to make a low calorie homemade jam under 3 minutes. It’s up to you what you decide to pair your cinnamon bread with. If I just toast it, I add cream cheese and jam. However, most of the times when I make this healthy French toast recipe, I pair it with a small amount of butter and sugar free maple syrup. It’s so good!!

I really thought my guilt-free french toast recipe was good, but since I tried it with Thomas Cinnamon Swirl Bread, it reached a whole new level of goodness! This bread is absolutely delicious and they came up with a thin sliced version that only has 80 calories. You must try it!

Ready to learn how to make a healthy French Toast recipe? Let’s do this!

Let’s dive in! How to make a healthy French toast?

This recipe is GOLD. So easy to put together.

I rarely buy Cinnamon bread, but a couple of weeks ago, I went to buy groceries before having lunch and I’m sure you know how that story ends. It’s true that you can’t go grocery shopping if you are hungry! I wanted to buy anything and everything and since I love anything with cinnamon I came home with an item I don’t usually buy; Thomas swirl bread… and a box of snickerdoodle cookies if I’m being completely honest. Ok, and ice cream too.

Buy hey, it worked out because now I’ll get to make this healthy French toast recipe for many days to come. And the craziest part was that coming up with this recipe, was a total splurge of the moment thing. I initially had the Thomas cinnamon bread with cream cheese and on the weekend I woke up craving my traditional healthy French toast recipe and decided to use this bread instead at the very last minute.

The only bad thing about buying Cinnamon twist bread…

The down side is that my husband does not like French toasts at all! (I still love him, but come on, that’s crazy!) So, I pretty much have to eat this whole thing by myself. For me, that’s not great because I do try to eat very clean and healthy and only eat things like this as a treat or on the weekends… but…

The good things is, you can freeze it and it stays fresh! Keep that in mind and still get yourself your cinnamon bread, even if you are the only one who eats it.

Ingredients – Healthy French Toast recipe

  • 2 slices of cinnamon bread (I used Thomas Swirl things because each slice only has 80 calories)
  • 1 egg
  • 2 TBS egg whites (for extra protein)
  • 1 TBS milk (it can be almond milk too. You can’t feel the taste)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon (optional, only for serious cinnamon lovers!)
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 packet of Stevia, Truvia or Splenda (optional because the bread is already sweet)

*In the meantime, heat up a non-stick pan on medium-high heat.

Preparation – Healthy French Toast recipe

  • Whisk all ingredients together
  • Dip the bread and let it absorb the mix for 15-20 seconds or so on each side
  • Spray your non-stick pan with coconut oil and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side

And that’s it! Serve and eat with sugar free maple syrup and maybe a little bit of butter. Your choice ;)

Other ways to eat Thomas Cinnamon Swirl Bread

If you are not a french toast person (why?), you can try toasting it and top it with whipped cream cheese and home made jam. I love this as an afternoon snack when I’m going crazy craving something sweet.

Looks fancy, but it’s the easiest thing ever!

Here’s how to make it:

You can use any fruit of your preference. For these toasts I made a mango one and a mixed berry one. All you have to do is to chop the fruit in small pieces, add a little bit of water (I used 1 tsp) and stevia to taste (1 tsp is good for me). Microwave it for one minute, stir it and put it back in for another 45 seconds. It’s so easy and it is low calorie too.

Other fruits you can use: apples, pears, peaches, blueberries, strawberries.

PS: I like to use whipped cream cheese instead of the regular one, because it has more volume and less calories (there’s a tip for you. Seriously, read the tag next time you go to the store).

Each of these toasts has only 150 calories. That’s it!!

Pro tip: let the toast cool down before adding the cream cheese. I don’t know why, but it tastes different when it melts and the whipped version melts a lot faster than the regular version.

When to eat a cinnamon bread toast?

When not to eat one? I mean, they are so good!

I know they look like breakfast food, but they are SO GOOD for an afternoon snack, especially if you are like me and like to have a sweet treat at around 4 pm ;)

There are so many ways you guys can use Thomas Cinnamon Swirl Bread or any cinnamon bread of your preference. But I really like Thomas. Be sure to check them out on Insta and their website for more recipes and to learn more about their other products. I just think they are fun to follow along! (but if there’s a better cinnamon bread, send it my way and I’ll try it too!)

Let me know what you think and which one of these would you try in the comments below. I’m all about easy low calorie recipes that also taste good, so I hope you are like me and found this post useful.

Did you know?

Thomas Swirl bread is picky about their ingredients and their products are always the freshest. I had no idea they distribute their breads in-store 5X a week! That’s why it’s always so good and hard to resist. I had no idea.

Final thoughts

This is not a food blog as you can probably tell. I just like to share easy recipes that I like to make. I cook all of my meals at home every single day and I honestly love cooking and eating yummy food. I’m just saying this because I know this doesn’t look like your traditional recipe page. But I promise all the things I share are delicious, very easy and mostly on the low calorie side.

Anyways…

Thanks so much for stopping by. If you do make this super easy French toast recipe, let me know in the comments. I would love to hear your thoughts :) And if you have any questions, I’m here to help!

XO,

Aimara

What a crazy feeling when you start loving somethi What a crazy feeling when you start loving something you once thought was scary. It really makes you realize that fear is not real and exists only in your mind.

Never stop pursuing what sets your heart on fire. Even if it’s scary. And if you don’t know what that is yet, I encourage you to make the time to find out 💙

PS: this photo was taken on a scuba dive trip while in Cozumel a couple of weeks ago. If you ever find yourself there, do yourself a favor and do it with @scubatonycozumel 🤿 You will not regret it!

We are currently slow traveling through the Yucatan peninsula. We are having the time of our lives and documenting it all on @waysoftheworld_ 🌎 See you there? 🙃

Yesterday we had a full day of exploring different Yesterday we had a full day of exploring different places and I needed different outfits but I didn’t have space to bring a whole new look. That’s when button down shirts + sneakers come handy! 

In the morning we went to the beach to snorkel and in the afternoon we explored Mayan ruins and had drinks and dinner. I needed sun protection and sneakers because they don’t recommend to walk the ruins in sandals (uneven terrain). I was able to change the wet bathing suit at the beach restaurant and didn’! get sunburn! Win win!!

PS: you can now shop all my looks via the @shop.ltk app ☺️ or via stories!

Back home after spending the best 3 months of my l Back home after spending the best 3 months of my life in Turkey 🇹🇷❤️

We definitely left a piece of our hearts there, but we also learned so much and we know we will be back many times! And it feels good to be with family this time of the year.

I know I didn’t do a good job at posting in here. Honestly, I thought it was going to be easier, but starting a new Instagram, blog and YouTube channel from scratch for @waysoftheworld_ took a lot more time than I ever thought it would! So now, I’ll try to share some of my favorite photos from this trip in here because it’s never too late 🙃

This one was taken in a small mediterranean town called Kas. It was one of our favorite places in all of Turkey! It’s the perfect vacation spot to just enjoy life 💕

Feels good to be back! Hope everyone has a great week ahead and thanks so much for being here!!

Turkey has been incredible. We are blown away by h Turkey has been incredible. We are blown away by how beautiful it is, all the different landscapes, the food, and above everything, the people ❤️

Looking back to a few weeks ago when I was really afraid of going on this trip, thinking about all the things that could go wrong, being a little upset with myself in a way for not wanting the traditional life path I always thought was my only choice; get married, buy a house, have kids, save money and travel when you retire. That’s not for me. 

I’m very happy I followed my heart 💕 I wrote a letter to myself on the blog: “What’s the best that can happen if the worst happens?” You can check it out by clicking the link in my bio. I hope it inspires you to think about what YOU really want in your heart, make a plan and go after it (but be patient). I promise that if I did it, so can you.

You have everything it takes ❤️

I basically only wear olive green and white now 😂 

Our days in beautiful Kas are almost over. I’m leaving a piece of my heart in this cute little town and we will definitely be back! Now it’s time to hop on a 6 hour bus to Pamukkale and see what that place is all about! 

Honestly, the only reason we are going there is because of me. G is not too crazy about it, but I’ve seen it on Instagram so much that I wanted to see for myself what the buzz was all about. So I’ll keep you posted on what it actually is!

If you are interested in knowing more about Kas (and all the amazing places we are visiting) we share a lot more on @waysoftheworld_ 💞 
We talk about useful tips, costs, best things we do, where we stay and so much more. I also update those stories daily! So I hope to see you there 🙃

Until next time friends 👋🏻

I was brave 💙 This was the most amazing experi I was brave 💙

This was the most amazing experience. I was SO nervous and anxious before but somehow I managed to push through and tried this very scary thing for the first time. And you know what I learned? That I loved it! I would do it again a million times! It wasn’t scary at all. It was all in my head and it wasn’t real. Also, they had the sweetest dog at the shop named Lucy that really help me not to think about it (swipe to see her 😍)

We didn’t do any crazy tricks like G did and it was a very peaceful flight. It’s up to you how you want to do it.

I can see why Ölüdeniz is one of the top places in the world to go paragliding. If you only want to do it once to cross it off your bucket list, this is the place you go to. We shared a post about with useful information in case you are interested. Link in bio + stories.

Would you do it? 🙃
