2 whole-wheat or low-carb tortillas -- cut in 1/4ths like a pizza
2 eggs
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon water
1 packet of Splenda (or other sugar alternative)
1 teaspoon butter (for frying)
This recipe has roughly 7 grams of carbs.
Beat eggs with water until frothy. Mix in cinnamon and sugar alternative. Melt butter on a skillet set at slightly higher than medium heat. Cooking surface is ready when a drop of water will dance.
Dip the tortillas pieces in egg mixture and fry until both sides are golden brown.
Serve with butter and a low-carb store bought syrup. Or for an interesting low-carb topping, mix 1 Tablespoon of sugar-free jam with 1 and 1/2 Tablespoons water and microwave for 45 seconds.
I like this. I added a pinch of vanilla powder to the egg mixture and used heavy cream instead of water for mixing with the eggs. I was pretty generous with butter in the frying pan. Overall it was very good. I drizzled it with just a little bit of real maple syrup and it tasted almost just like 'real' French toast.

It's a nice recipe. Fun even it you're not on a low-carb diet.

This recipe is absolutely delicious! I made it for breakfast two days in a row. I topped it with sugar-free jam heated in the micro,served w/some breakfast sausage. I am even going to use this in my low-carb diet as a dessert, a little cool whip and jam... yummy.
