Ingredients
  

  • 1 large egg
  • 2 Tablespoons unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1 scoop (25-30g) vanilla protein powder
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 2 slices whole grain or high-protein bread
  • Cooking spray or a little coconut oil for the pan

Instructions
 

  • In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg, almond milk, protein powder, cinnamon, vanilla, and sea salt until the mixture is smooth and free of clumps.
  • Take each slice of bread and dip it into the bowl, letting it soak up the mixture for 15–30 seconds on each side.
  • Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and coat it with a light spray of cooking oil or a small amount of coconut oil.
  • Place the soaked bread slices into the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes per side. You're looking for golden-brown edges and a slightly crisp outer texture.
  • Remove from the skillet, plate your French toast, and top with fresh fruit, a drizzle of almond butter, or a light dusting of extra cinnamon. Enjoy warm!
