Ingredients

  • 2 slices sprouted grain bread or bread of choice
  • 4 egg whites
  • 1-2 tablespoon unsweetened almond milk or regular milk
  • ¼ teaspoon real vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ cup frozen wild blueberries optional
  • olive oil cooking spray

Instructions

  • Preheat a skillet over med-high heat
  • Beat egg whites, vanilla, cinnamon and milk with a fork or whisk until blended
  • Place bread, one piece at a time, in egg white mixture
  • Flip over and make sure all sides are coated and all of the egg white mixture is used
  • Spray pan with cooking spray and cook until lightly golden on each side
  • Serve with berries and sugar free or real maple syrup

Notes

  • Feel free to add 1-2 whole eggs to the batter to suit your taste and macronutrient needs. Adjust the bread amount or reduce egg whites accordingly.
  • Any bread will work great for this recipe, so go with your favorite. Keep in mind that sprouted grain Ezekiel bread is high in fiber and has 5 grams of protein per slice, so it's a great way to get a protein AND fiber boost.
  • Enjoying this high-protein french toast with a glass of high-protein milk, like Fairlife brand, can help you add even more protein to your meal. Also, see my high protein topper recommendations.
  • It's important to cook this french toast on medium heat to prevent the bread from browning too quickly before the center is fully cooked and set.
