Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 2 Tablespoons unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
- 1 scoop (25-30g) vanilla protein powder I used Equip
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt
- 2 slices whole grain or high-protein bread like Dave’s Killer Bread powerseed bread
- Cooking spray or a little coconut oil for the pan
Instructions
- In a shallow bowl or dish, whisk together the egg, almond milk, protein powder, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt until smooth and no clumps remain.
- Dip each slice of bread in the mixture, letting it soak for 15–30 seconds per side.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Cook the soaked bread slices for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Transfer to a plate and top with your favorite toppings. Enjoy warm!
Notes
- I used Equip vanilla protein powder. Plant-based protein powders absorb more liquid, so you may need to add a splash of extra milk.
- Slightly stale, sturdy bread like whole grain, sourdough, or high-protein bread works best.
- This recipe is written as a single serving, but it can easily be doubled or tripled.
