Oh Friendlets, have I got a fabulous breakfast recipe for you this morning!
Pistachio and Raspberry baked french toast souffle for one.
(adapted from Lauren’s Blackberry Soufflee recipe)
- 1 medium sized whole wheat bagel (broken in to pieces) **
- 1/2 cup milk (I used vanilla coconut)
- 1 T oat flour
- 1 T wheat germ
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- handful of raspberries
Directions:
Tear bagel in to pieces and place in a greased ramekin*** Mix together the milk, oat flour, cinnamon, extract, and sweetener. Pour milk mixture over the bagel pieces and add raspberries. Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes.
Notes:
**You can really use any bread you please but the bagel added a really hearty and doughy texture.
***Lauren actually blender her bread in to the milk mixture for a creamy souffle which sounds phenomenal. I’ll be trying out her version too. Probably like, tomorrow. Or in 5 minutes.
****Lauren also uses cornstarch in her recipe but I omitted because I didn’t have any. I don’t know if it made much of a difference but it tasted just fine to me!
I opted to top mine with pistachios because I have been lovin’ on them like crazy as of late and I think they’re the best nutty counterpart to raspberries.
Aside from being easy peasy, this recipe was so good. Crunchy on the outside, soft and doughy on the inside. I swooooooon.
I’ve actually never had soufflé before (le gasp!) so I can’t say if the texture if it’s aptly named in terms of texture and taste, but Lauren deemed hers to be comparable to one and I trust her 
I can’t wait to try out other variations!

What’s one food that you’ve always wanted to try but never have? I’ve been looking in to a ton of soufflé recipes but damn, they’re intimidating! I would go out and get one from a restaurant but the closest thing we have to french cuisine in my little hum drum Connecticut town is Mickey D’s french fries. Fabulous in their own right, though, of course.

For some reason I’ve caught the cleaning bug today. First project: my car. I haven’t opened my trunk in months. I’m scared.
