I'mPat's Note:

From Australian Better Homes and Gardens Diabetic Living. This looks like it would be a beautiful weekend or lazy day breakfast.

• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 2

• 3 slices raisin bread
• 2 eggs (50g, small)

3. Cut each slice of raisin bread in half to form 2 triangles out of each slice.
4. Whisk the eggs, skim milk (or buttermilk) and cinnamon in a shallow dish.
5. Dip each piece of bread into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.
6. Put each piece on the tray and then bake in the oven for 10 minutes or until egg mixture has turned golden brown.
7. Divide the toast between two plates.
8. Spoon the yoghurt over, top with peach slices and sprinkle with toasted almonds.

I love this recipe! This would be awesome for large breakfast group especially being able to put it in the oven instead of pan frying. And it give big flavor for low cost :)

I was looking for something different to cook for my daughters' breakfast and they chose this recipe to try. It was so delicious with a fantastic flavor! It's often difficult to find a recipe that they both like, but this recipe got a big thumbs up from both of them.

Breakfast for supper is always a hit in our house. This dish was perfect! I didn't think it would but the toast did actually cook in only 10 minutes. I doubled the recipe and also used 8 pieces of thick toast for the 4 of us. These were enjoyed by all of us! Made for Went to the Market tag game. Thanks I'mPat! :)
