Mocha French Toast

French toast is one of my favorite breakfasts! Does it have to be an unhealthy calorie bomb? No! Does it have to be delicious? Yes!

I actually came up with this idea because I ran out of milk but I wanted French Toast! I used cold brew coffee as liquid in the batter and it came out delicious! Instead of using syrup or sugary toppings, I used a mocha peanut spread and Nunaturals Cocoa Syrup (stevia sweetened) for a guilt free, indulgent, and caffeinated breakfast!


Mocha French Toast 😍•2 slices @daveskillerbread •1 egg or 2 egg whites • about 1/4 cup @highbrewcoffee (I used bold and black) • sweetener to taste • Mix the batter ingredients. Soak bread in the batter. Cook on medium heat in a skillet sprayed with cooking spray. Topped with mocha @epicspreads and @nunaturals cocoa syrup! So good! Let me know if you do it! P.S. I invented this because I ran out of milk 😂

Ingredients:

  • 2 slices whole grain bread 
  • 1 egg or 2 egg whites
  • about 1/4 cup coffee (I used cold brew but you could use any coffee)
  • sweetener to taste 
  • 1-2 tbsp mocha EpicSpreads peanut butter
  • NuNaturals Cocoa Syrup 

Directions:

  1. Heat a pan to medium heat and spray with cooking spray. 
  2. Whisk the egg, coffee and sweetener. 
  3. Dip the slices of bread in the batter until it is completely soaked up. 
  4. Cook the bread in the pan. Flip when golden brown. 
  5. Top with mocha peanut butter and cocoa syrup! 
Macros vary based on toppings, coffee, eggs and bread.

Gut Healthy Gummy Bears! Keto Friendly

Team Sour or Team Sweet? I'm team sour all the way! These gummies are surprisingly easy to make if you have a gummy bear mold (they're very inexpensive on amazon!) and they have the gut-health benefits of prebiotic fiber and gelatin! First they're sour, then they're sweet. Ingredients: 40g VitaFiber IMO syrup  1 tbsp gelatin liquid stevia to taste (I used orange stevia) 1/2 cup water Directions: Heat the mixture on the stove until bubbling.  Use the dropper to fill the gummy bear molds.  Place in fridge until set.  Just before eating, toss the gummy bears in a mixture of citric acid powder, and granulated sweetener of choice (I used a monk fruit/erythritol blend).  Voila! Sour gummies!

Is Healthy Chocolate an Oxymoron?

While I believe the term "healthy" can be interpreted many ways, there are now tons of chocolate options on the market to fit into many diets including: low sugar, no sugar, dairy free, gluten free, etc. I wholeheartedly support this because I believe everyone should have chocolate! It's one of my life goals to get chocolate from as many countries as I can. So far, Italy has had the best chocolate (if you go, find Venchi!). Clearly, I'm an un-certified chocolate aficionado. So it is my duty to try all the "healthy" chocolates that I can get my hands on! JOJO Chocolate Bark This chocolate comes in two varieties: 70% dark chocolate bark and peanut butter delight. The dark chocolate bark encases raw almonds, pistachios, and dried cranberries. It's non GMO, has only 8g sugar and a boost of Non GMO casein protein! I really loved the nuts and cra...
