Canyon French toast

Merry Christmas... and happy holidays ... with this GLUTEN FREE PUMPKIN FRENCH TOAST!



I used canyon white bread here to get the perfect texture to the French toast! A lot of gluten free breads are dense, but canyons white bread actually tastes exactly like white bread


Gluten Free


Dairy Free


Nut Free



Ingredients:

6 slices of canyon gluten free bread

2 eggs

1/3 cup pumpkin purée

2 tbsp cinnamon

2 tbsp oat milk

2 tbsp vegan butter


Directions:

  1. Combine eggs, pumpkin purée, oat milk, and cinnamon in a shallow dish. Mix until fully blended together.

  2. Melt butter on medium heat in a large frying pan.

  3. Dip one piece of bread into the mixture covering both sides. Then add to pan.

  4. Cook both sides for 2-4 minutes on medium heat until edges become crispy!

  5. Repeat until all the French toast is made! I put 4 pieces in the pan at once! You can do however many fit.

  6. Top with goodies!


Toppings:

+ All the syrup you want! I used sugar free!

+ All the berries you want! I used strawberries and blueberries.

+ Any extra breakfast goodies! I added bacon and sautéed breakfast potatoes.




These brownies are my favorite because they’re only 150 calories each! They are low fat, have .6g of saturated fat and 0g of cholesterol... both of which I’m pretty strict about.



🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️Fun fact: A few years ago at my yearly physical I found out my cholesterol was pretty high. I wasn’t eating particularly healthy, and definitely not as healthy as I eat now, so looking back it made a lot of sense. Now that I’ve corrected the problem I am pretty strict with the amount of saturated fat and cholesterol I consume in each day. Minimal amounts of saturated fats are something that really worked for me while I was getting my cholesterol back on track.



@egglandsbest 100% Liquid Egg Whites are fat free, cholesterol free and also low in sodium. I love subbing egg whites in a baked sweet treat instead if whole eggs because it transforms it into a healthier option than it could have been! #HolidayswithEBEggWhites #ad

GLUTEN FREE HOLIDAY STUFFING "RICE" BALLS...also known as arancini if you are classier than I am! 


Rice balls used to be a favorite of mine back in my PGF days..."pre gluten free" days that is. After going gluten free I for sure thought rice balls were a lost cause but boy was I wrong!



Gluten Free Holiday Stuffing Rice Ball Ingredients:

1 bag right rice Holiday Medley

3 eggs

3 tbsp vegan parmesan cheese 

2 1/2 cups gluten free breadcrumbs


Directions:

1. Make the whole bag of Right Rice according to the directions on the bag! It's super easy! Just 1 1/3 cup of water and the "rice".

2. Chill the rice overnight. It's super important the rice is cold when making these!

3. In a bowl, combine 1 egg, all the rice, and 3 tbsp vegan parmesan cheese.

4. Carefully form approx 10-14 balls with the rice. They will fall apart easily if you're not careful. I used an ice cream scoop to press them into the right shapes.

5. Crack 2 eggs into a bowl and whisk them.

6. Add the breadcrumbs to a separate bowl.

7. Dip the balls into the egg mixture, then into the breadcrumb mixture and make sure they are fully covered on all sides with the bread crumbs.

8. Air fry at 390 for 10-15 minutes until crispy!


Fun Fact: This Right Rice is made with whole grain sorghum, which is a nutritious, high-energy whole grain that can help fuel your

body. Whole grain sorghum contains nearly 11 percent protein, 75 percent complex carbohydrates and is rich in B complex vitamins ... and is GLUTEN FREE!


Sorghum is low in fat and high in nutrients. Sorghum flour can be used on its own or in a

flour blend to create a variety of baked goods, making it an ideal flour option for people who suffer

from celiac disease or gluten intolerance!  

Whole grain sorghum is an excellent source of dietary fiber beneficial for digestive health. Research shows that fiber intake is inversely associated with the risk of chronic disease. Sorghum has also been found to contain the lowest starch digestibility among cereal crops. This means sorghum is digested slowly and is a great whole grain option for people with diabetes.
