Protein French Toast
easy15 min totalPrep: 5mCook: 10mServes: 1
French toast that fits your macros. The protein powder in the egg wash is the trick — it adds sweetness, flavour, and an extra 20g+ protein without changing the texture. Proper weekend breakfast vibes on a weekday budget.
Ingredients
- 2 thick slices white bread (or brioche for a treat)
- 2 large eggs
- 20g vanilla whey protein powder
- 30ml semi-skimmed milk
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- Low-calorie cooking spray
- 50g mixed berries
- 10g zero-calorie maple syrup
Method
- Whisk together the eggs, protein powder, milk, and cinnamon in a shallow bowl until smooth.
- Dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, letting it soak for 15 seconds per side.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and spray with cooking spray.
- Cook each slice for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
- Serve topped with berries and a drizzle of zero-calorie maple syrup.
Pro Tip
Slightly stale bread works better for French toast — it absorbs the egg mixture without falling apart. Leave fresh bread out for a few hours or lightly toast it first.
Nutrition Notes
35g protein from the eggs and whey, with moderate carbs from the bread. Using zero-calorie maple syrup saves around 60 calories compared to the real thing while still giving you that sweet, sticky finish.
