Ghetto Fabulous French Toast [Recipe]

January 16, 2015 By Laura

I like to get toasted.

In the French way ’cause I’m classy.

French toast is becoming an unintentional theme for #strangebutgood.  Last week it was Healthy French Toast.  2 weeks ago it was totally unhealthy (but delicious) Eggnog Baked French Toast.  Now it’s the thug life.

This is the laziest, most bass ackwards way possible to make french toast.  Toast the bread while beating egg whites with cinnamon and stevia.  Pour egg mixture over the top.

Ghetto Fabulous French Toast

Cook.  Make it a little extra-fabulous with #yolkporn on top.  Then flip it.  Flip it real good.

Random fact: When I was 18 my friends threw a ghetto fabulous-themed New Years Eve party.  There was a punch bowl of gin and juice.  I drank nearly all of it because no one was drinking it and I didn’t want to “waste” it.  To this day the smell of gin turns my stomach.  I never said I was a smart kid.  Back to the toast.

Lubricate it some more with trash-tastic sugar-free syrup.

Eat it.  Bonus if you don’t use utensils.

I ain’t sayin’ I’m a YOLK digger…

  • 1 slice bread
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 3-4 drops vanilla liquid stevia
  • 1 whole egg*
  • Syrup

Toast bread in small non-stick pan.  Meanwhile, beat egg whites with cinnamon and stevia.  

Pour egg white mixture over toast.  Cook 1-2 mins, until mostly solid.  Crack whole egg over the top.  Flip carefully.  I used the plate to help – my spatula is small.

Cook 1-2 mins more (will vary depending on how “done” you like your yolk).  Plate, top with syrup, and devour.

*Add another egg white or two if you don’t use the whole egg.

    This makes me want to throw a ghetto fabulous party of my own. Would gin, juice and french toast all go together? Sure! This is the ghetto!!

    OMG I love this! Do you know I hate doing dishes and cleaning up? It really sucks too because I’m always cooking then I look around wondering how I’m gonna clean it up. Ugh…good thing Moms here to help this month!

    I wasn’t going to link up today since my recipe really isn’t strange, and then I read your post and thought how could I not? Hopefully bringing nuts to the party gives me a rule breaking exemption. If it helps, I slipped a little old school, The Chronic album in my post. I figured you’d appreciate it.

    I will never try to make you drink Gin.

    • Laura says

      You are always welcome to link up. I know how strange you are.

    Hmmm. I might just try this. I’m getting bored with my fried egg and toast. Now I can get the same nutrition ghetto style!

    Ghetto fabulous or extremely gourmet, I’m not one to pass up good ol’ French toast! I especially love it in savoury form with a side of avocado!

    I used to make french toast all the time for my sister and myself when we were kids. I thought it was so fancy – piled high with powdered sugar and syrup of course!

    • Laura says

      January 20, 2015 at 4:23 PM

      We did the same thing! It was the only thing I knew how to make. 🙂

    I love the fact that we are both such French Toast afficianados. Baileys French Toast is pretty badass, too, though likely not prep-approved.
    Also, the Ghetto Fab component of this makes me want to add fried chicken and hot sauce….

    • Laura says

      January 20, 2015 at 4:44 PM

      OMG – I loooooove chicken and waffles. French toast must happen. After this competition.

    Yum. French toast awesome. Straight ghetto FT?! This rocks. I actually did something similar once, but the outcome was interesting…..it was a late night “I’m too drunk to do it right” kind of deal. I fried an egg, dropped a slice of raisin bread on top while it fried, then I think I dropped a pile of peanut butter (or ice cream) on top. Like I said, it wasn’t a hack, but rather, a moment of drunken brilliance. I actually like baked French toast, but it takes prep work (I’m too lazy). I don’t have any great shortcuts other than microwaving frozen veggies. I nuke broccoli so hard that it gets a little crispy like it actually spent time in the oven. Microwaving veggies the night before for my lunch saves so much time and energy. I really don’t have the time and patience to bake and broil every night. I work out hard, but I have to be lazy sometimes. I don’t cut corners in quality of food, but prep work? I gotta stay fly. And ghetto fabulous. Have a lovely weekend!

      Actually… your drunken moment does sound like brilliance. I’d even eat that sober.

    Yum you should have a French toast series looks so delicious!

    • Laura says

      January 20, 2015 at 4:50 PM

      Hahaha! I need to come up with one for this Friday… help!

    I haven’t had french toast in forever. Your gin story reminds me of my tequila story. I was at a party where there was loads of tequila and none of my friends were drinking it, because they’d had bad experiences with tequila. I didn’t see what the big deal was until UGH. Now I can’t drink tequila either.

    • Laura says

      January 20, 2015 at 4:51 PM

      *shudder* Thankfully I don’t have a tequila story. Well, I do… but it wasn’t as bad and the gin. I can still drink tequila, but learned never to take shots.

  23. Heather @ FITaspire says

    January 17, 2015 at 12:54 PM

    You are hilarious!! The lazy preparation with this one is exactly my style recently. Someone needs to find my meal creating mojo, it’s like pulling teeth to plan anything recently!! 🙂

      January 20, 2015 at 4:53 PM

      Don’t put too much pressure – you have Kirk to back you up!
