Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup eggnog
- 3 eggs
- 3 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 Tablespoon sugar
- 4 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 6 slices Texas Toast
- Unsalted butter, for cooking
- Maple syrup, for serving
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggnog, eggs, cinnamon, sugar and vanilla extract.
- Arrange the slices of Texas Toast in a single layer in a 9x13" baking pan or serving dish.
- Pour the eggnog mixture over the bread, flipping each slice so it's thoroughly coated. Cover the pan securely with plastic wrap and refrigerate it overnight.
- When ready to serve, heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter to the pan, allowing it to cook for 1 minute. Place two to three slices of the soaked toast in the pan so that the slices aren't overlapping and cook it, without flipping, until golden brown on one side. Flip the bread and cook it on the other side until it's cooked throughout. Transfer the French toast to serving plates, add more butter to the pan as needed and cook the remaining slices of bread.
- Top with warmed maple syrup and serve immediately.
PCOS-Friendly Foods in This Recipe
This recipe contains the following foods that may benefit PCOS management: Cinnamon.
Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly.
