Why this remake works

  • Egg whites boost protein in the custard without more yolks.
  • Wholegrain bread adds fibre versus white sandwich loaf.
  • Greek yogurt and berries replace most of a syrup-heavy topping.
  • A non-stick pan needs only a light oil mist.

Ingredients

Custard soak

Eggs
2
Egg whites
80 ml
Low-fat milk
60 ml
Vanilla extract
1/2 tsp
Ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp
Salt
pinch

Bread and topping

Wholegrain bread slices
4 slices
Olive oil or butter for the pan
1 tsp
Greek yogurt (0–2%)
100 g
Mixed berries
150 g
Honey
1 tsp

Method

  1. Whisk eggs, egg whites, milk, vanilla, cinnamon and salt in a shallow dish until evenly combined.
  2. Soak each bread slice for 20–30 seconds per side so the custard absorbs but the bread still holds together.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with the oil or butter. Cook slices for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and the custard is set.
  4. Plate two slices per person. Top with Greek yogurt and berries, then drizzle lightly with honey.
  5. Serve immediately while the toast is crisp at the edges.

Chef tips

  • Staler bread soaks better without falling apart.
  • Medium heat prevents a burnt outside and raw centre.

Substitutions

  • Egg whites → One extra whole egg
  • Honey → A dusting of cinnamon only
