Recipe: Protein Packed French Toast

I've actually only ever had real french toast once. But on occasion I make my own protein french toast. It's an easy, quick breakfast that makes a nice change every once and a while.

You can top it with a variety of toppings and use another flavoured protein for a different flavour.

In the image below I topped it with blueberries, maple syrup, and a mixture of greek yoghurt, peanut flour, and stevia.


Makes 1 serving

Ingredients:
  • 2 slices of toast, uncooked
  • 15g (1/2 scoop) protein powder (I used vanilla whey)
  • 1 egg 
  • Dash of cinnamon
  • Toppings and fruit of your choice

Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees celcius (350 farenheit)
  • Mix together protein powder, egg, and cinnamon in a wide bowl.
  • Lay first piece of toast in the mixture and coat both sides, repeat with second slice.
  • Place slices onto a lined baking tray and bake in the oven for about 10 minutes until they are slightly crispy and toast it cooked.
  • Drizzle over your toppings and fruit.

Notes:
You may want to add stevia to the mixture if you prefer it sweeter. 
If you don't like eating the egg yolk, you could use two egg whites instead.

Enjoy!
