Scrambled egg on toast in the morning is a staple breakfast for many of us, especially on the weekends when have a little extra time in the kitchen. 

But just how many syns does this popular breakfast combination have? 

Well, one slice of toast (wholemeal) on the SW plan can be counted as your healthy extra B and for eggs, they are classed as syn free too, but you should cook them with low cal oil spray so the whole combo is syn free.

To understand more about using wholemeal bread slices as your healthy extra B and how to make the best toast with an egg in the morning, we put together a short guide below that will explain everything you need to know.

Is Bread Syn Free? 

Wholemeal bread is classed as a Healthy Extra B on the SW plan, this could be one thick toast slice or two slices of bread - 2 HEb's 60g. The reason why is because they give a good amount of fibre which can help with your weight loss journey. 

You only get one healthy extra B per day, so if you have used this somewhere else, you would then have to count the syns of the slices of bread which on average is around 5 syns.

Are Eggs Syn Free?

Eggs are syn free on the SW plan, however, if you having them scrambled you have to be careful with the oil you are using, also avoid putting milk or cream into your egg mixture as it will add unnecessary syns. 

To reach your weight loss goals, boiling or poaching the eggs is always a better idea.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are syn values calculated?

Syn values are calculated using a formula based on calories, saturated fat and sugar content per serving. They’re not the same as calories — a product can be low in calories but higher in syns if it’s high in sugar or fat. Always check the official Slimming World app for the most accurate and up-to-date syn values.

Do syn values change?

Yes. When manufacturers reformulate their products, the syn value can go up or down. This is why we recommend double-checking with the Slimming World app or your consultant, especially if a product’s packaging has changed recently.

How many syns should I have per day?

Most Slimming World members work with 5 to 15 syns per day. Your consultant will advise on the right amount for you. The key is to use your syns on the things you enjoy most — whether that’s a chocolate bar, a glass of wine, or a packet of crisps.
