A healthy breakfast so you can enjoy the french toast that we all love so much. Packed with flavor and protein. Great for all!
Ingredients
- 2-3 slices of Ezekiel or Paleo bread, or bread of choice
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 2-4 tbs of almond milk, see how thick the mixture gets
- 2 tbs coconut flour, or flour of choice
- 1 scoop of your favorite protein powder
- 1/2 tsp of pure vanilla extract
- a grind or two of Himalayan sea salt, or just salt
- a dash of cinnamon
- Serve with fresh raspberries and banana slices (or fruit of choice)
- Drizzle with raw honey or syrup
- Optional Toppings- yogurt or your favorite nut butter
Instructions
- In a med bowl mix the dry ingredients; protein powder, salt, cinnamon, and coconut flour.
- Next add in the 2 eggs, the almond milk (see how much you need, start with 2 tbs), and vanilla extract. Whisk well until most clumps are gone. (You will have a few).
- Place this mixture in a shallow bowl. Add one slice at a time. Let the bread soak up all the mixture. You can prick your fork a few times to let is soak in more. Flip and repeat.
- Heat a pan over med heat. I use coconut oil, (or oil of choice) and when warmed; add the slice. Let cook for about 1-2 mins each side. NOTE: because of the protein powder it can burn easier than you would think – so watch it.
- Now repeat the process. Add the next slice of bread in the egg mixture. Coat both sides. Add more oil to the pan if needed and cook 1-2 mins each side. Remember to double this if you are making more than on serving.
- Place on a plate. Add your fruit of choice. I use fresh raspberries and sliced bananas. Sprinkle with a dust of cinnamon and a drizzle maple syrup or honey over. Can also use a BIG dollop of your favorite yogurt or nut butter. ENJOY!
Notes
This recipe can make 2-3 slices. If you are feeding many – just double everything.[br]You can use all egg whites but I use 2 eggs – good flavor, texture, and where all the nutrients are.[br]Can use any protein powder you want. I use vanilla flavor but chocolate could work.[br]I LOVE Himalayan sea salt (brings out the flavor BIG time) but if you do not have this you can absolutely use salt.[br]Use any fruit you like. You could even add say blueberries to the egg mixture too so they warm up in the pan.[br]Another topping idea is that you can could even add a big dollop of yogurt or your favorite nut butter too.
