Ingredients

• 100 g frozen mixed berries ((£2.00/2)=(£1.00)  )
• 3 eggs ((£0.85/2)=(£0.43))
• 100 ml skimmed milk ((£0.60))
• 8 thick slices of whole meal bread ((£0.58))
• 4 tbsp 0% fat Greek yogurt ((£0.85))
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method

1. If possible, leave the slices of bread on a baking tray, uncovered, overnight to dry out before cooking.
2. Set the frozen mixed berries aside to defrost. Combine the eggs, skimmed milk, vanilla extract, honey and cinnamon in a bowl with a whisk.
3. Add a ½ a tbsp of olive oil into a large non-stick frying pan on a medium heat. One by one, dunk the stale pieces of bread into skimmed milk/egg mix and transfer into the frying pan, frying 2 pieces at a time.
4. After around 3 minutes, or until golden brown, rotate and repeat the frying process on the other side. Transfer to the oven whilst completing dunking/frying the rest of the pieces of bread. For each two pieces of bread, use around ½ a tbsp of olive oil for frying.
5. Serve the french toast with a dollop of Greek yogurt, a handful of mixed berries, a squeeze of honey and an extra sprinkle of cinnamon.
