French Toast Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 2 slices white bread
- 1 tbs olive oil for frying
- 1 tbs tomato ketchup to serve
How to make French Toast Stars
- Crack the eggs in a small bowl or cup and whisk them with a fork.
- Carefully pour the beaten eggs onto a small plate – one that fits a slice of bread on it.
- Place a slice of bread into the beaten egg mixture – press it down slightly, the bread is like a sponge it will soak up the egg mixture.
- Turn the bread over and coat the other side in the egg mixture.
- Add a splash of olive oil to a non stick frying pan over a medium heat – once the oil is hot place the eggy bread into the pan to fry.
- Cook it for around 2 minutes on one side before flipping and cooking the other side – make sure both sides are lovely and golden brown.
- Once cooked place the eggy bred onto a slice of kitchen paper to soak up any excess oil.
- Then transfer to a chopping board and using the star shaped cookie cutter cut out as many stars as you can from the French toast.
- Serve the French toast stars with a little pot of tomato ketchup for dipping.
Make school day breakfast your way
Our French toast stars are super tasty just as they are but you can mix things up differently – try….
- ramping up the fibre content and choose a wholegrain or seeded bread
- serve with BBQ dip or drizzled in maple syrup
How to serve French bread stars
- Perfect for school day breakfast – add a glass of smoothie or fresh juice.
- I tend to add a healthy smoothie like our delicious spinach and kiwi smoothie with banana and yogurt. Get the Spinach Smoothie recipe here. You can’t taste the spinach in this smoothie at all and so it’s a great way to get kids to eat greens!
