I usually don’t win stuff.
Like, ever.
That is…up until a few months ago. Upon receiving my second month’s shipment of VitaTops yesterday, I decided it was probably a good idea to repost the recipe that helped me win a six-month supply of them.

(But really, it was thanks to your votes that I won Roni’s VitaTop recipe contest. So, thank you! 
)
For those of you who aren’t familiar with VitaTops, I highly suggest that you get familiar with them. They’re essentially healthy muffin tops that come in dozens of different flavors, are full of fiber and vitamins, and only 100 calories each. They’ve been a staple food of mine for years. I just love ‘em!
Anyway, on to the recipe.
VitaTop French Toast.
ingredients:
- 1 VitaTop (any flavor will work – this time I used Apple Crumb)
- 1 egg (or 1-2 egg whites)
- 1-2 tbsp almond milk
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- generous sprinkle of cinnamon
directions: Combine egg, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon in a bowl. Microwave the frozen VitaTop for 25 seconds, then soak it for about a minute in the egg mixture (there will be some mixture left over…probably enough to soak another VitaTop).
Cook the VitaTop for 2-3 minutes per side on medium heat on a greased stovetop pan or griddle.
Use toppings of your choice.
What’s the best thing you’ve ever won?
Congrats, that sounds AMAZING
I just think winning little things here and there is satisfying!
i also love making waffle french toast.. i’ve never tried with a muffin though, love the idea!
The best thing I’ve ever won were tickets to an NSYNC show when I was younger, but unfortunately the show was cancelled due to bad weather so I never go to go.
Yay! Congrats girl!! I started making your vita muffin french toast with the corn muffins a few months back–and it was so good, I make it at least once a week!
That’s a lot of vitatops!! What a fun recipe.
oh yum!! I was just thinking how badly I craved french toast..and now I miss vita tops too! Feel free to pass some along if you get sick of them..haha
But congrats! Winning things is so much fun, especially if you don’t do it often! Makes you that much more grateful!
I’m trying to figure out a way to pass some along!! The problem is that they have to be kept frozen. Working on it!
i LOVE the chocolate vitatops..i put them in the toaster..put a little cup of chocolate pudding on top then top the whole thing with whipped cream and chocolate chips! delicious!
Yum!!! Have you tried the new Vitatops pumpkin version? I’m dying to find out what they taste like! That french “toast” looks delish!
So easy–Yum! (And congrats on the win. That’s a nice prize!)
Yum Vitatop French Toast is such a good idea! You deserved to win those
What a great idea! Congrats! Hmm, I actually can’t think of anything I’ve ever won! Is that sad or what?! lol
I see these all over and need to try these! ps this is my first comment on your blog, but it’s so fun, relevant and cute!
Anywho, I’ve got a question for ya. Can you get VitaTops at store’s like Kroeger, or do you have to go to a specialty store like Trader Joe’s?
*stores…the gramatical error/sentence structure in my comment is really bugging me haha nerd alert
Hi Sarah! I’m not familiar with Kroeger, but I’ve seen VitaTops at Acme, Stop n Shop, and Safeway. You can also order them online. Hope that helps!
hahaha oops i’m a from the Mid West so that makes sense! It def. helps. Thank you!
Congrats! I won a box of custom-made Element Bars from a blog contest, which were amazing.
Mmm, that looks fantastic!! I always see them in the store but have yet to buy any.
Oh, that looks so good and so easy! Congrats on the win!!!
WOAH that looks FABULOUS! the best thing i ever won was…. THE EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP in softball!
I think I won a cup of tootsie rolls in elementary school… what a pathetic winning streak! Can’t believe you won another box!! You’ll have to come up with more recipes for us
I’ve won $5000 in the PA Lottery Million Dollar Spin in the 90s *gulp* and I’ve won an iPod from Sobe drinks last year.
Congrats on the VitaTops win!
Love this idea! If I can ever find a kind of Vita Top other than chocolate-chocolate chip, I am totally trying this.
I’ve never really won anything, but last week, I was given a gift card to Caribou Coffee for talking about something quickly at a big meeting at work. It ended up having $50 on it, so it felt like I won something
Oh, that looks fabulously delicious! I have recently discovered (and love) Vitatops! ….I have been looking for recipes to use them with – so thanks for posting one! Congrats on winning!
I really have not won anything, lol! Not anything I can remember that was amazing! Congrats girl!! u are soooooooo lucky! If i lived closer to you Im sure you would share ; ) right ?! lol
Yummy!
Congrats girl!! Slash I never win ANYTHING, but I just won a cookbook so maybe my luck is turning around!:)
USA Nationals for cheerleading! Well maybe it wasn’t the best thing I’ve ever won, but it certainly was the most rewarding!
This is random but I saw vitatops at the grocery store, and it reminded me of your blog, haha.
I never win things! The most exciting thing I recently won was a $10 Starbucks gift card. Yeahhh.
That french toast looks amazing though!
I have never had a vitatop. It just doesn’t seem like a habit/addiction I want to start. Tell me if I’m crazy.
I won a halloween contest when I was like 10. I don’t really remember winning anything else.
NEVER thought to do this with a vitatop before! i’ve been eating them for EVER now!
xo.
Mmm..no wonder you won! That sounds amazing.
Congrats on winning! I’ve actually never tried vitatops before, I can never find them here. But as soon as I see them, I’m definitely picking up a box.
Congrats!
I’m in the minority who has never tried these. Is there a chocolate one? Who am I kidding, there has to be a chocolate one. I love muffins like nobody’s business so as long as these have that great taste, a box probably wouldn’t stand a chance.
Congrats on winning! It looks amazing! I don’t think I’ve ever had a vitatop before. They look tasty!
The best thing I ever won was an Electrolux vaccumm! It is worth like $400! I love that thing
I’ve wanted to try Vitatops forever and a day, but darn if they aren’t expensive!
The best thing I ever won was a Canadian short story contest. The prize was a copy of the anthology full of stories no one but the winners, and their families, ever read. And a stuffed kangaroo in a coloring contest when I was 4.
That recipe looks awesome girl!
Good for you!!
Slash share the love, hahah!!!!!!!!!
haha, I’m going to try too!! The problem with VitaTops is that they have to be kept frozen, so I’m trying to figure out a way around that…
I won a big batch Better-than-Crack brownies in a blogging giveaway from http://dalyauthenticity.blogspot.com/! They are currently in my freezer and I savor one every few days!
What a great recipe idea! I haven’t tried the Vitatops before, but I have seen them all over blogword. They are just so freaking expensive!
Best thing I ever won was an essay contest where I received an authentic RC Train Set as a kid. The engine even blew out fake steam!
I never win stuff either! I’m cursed with bad luck.
It looks like you definitely deserved to win that contest though. That was genius to make it into french toast!
I don’t win often but i once won cinema and free popcorn tickets. Not bad even though i don’t really like popcorn:S
These french toast look amazing! So simple yet so tasty ( I haven’t try them but i will soon, i’m sur they are amazingly good!)
Congrats! I will definitely try it. Who doesn’t want a muffin top combined with another amazing breakfast treat?!
The best thing I’ve ever won was our cross country sectional championship this past season. We were expected to come in third place, but we won! I cried, my coach was jumping up and down, and we all PR’d that day. I’ll never forget how awesome it felt. Plus I got a few newspaper clippings out of it
The best thing I ever won was a gift set from Chobani…yeah foodie at heart. My family just laughed when they saw the (literally) HUGE chobani box on our front porch. I smiled. That stuff is GOOD.
And now, I will be ordering Vitatops. And making your french toast STAT!
I rarely win things, but yesterday I won a book that I’ve been wanting to read. So, that was good.
