Enjoy a protein-packed French toast for brunch, made with protein powder or egg whites. This recipe offers 30g of protein per serving and can be cooked in an air fryer or on the stovetop.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 slices thick-cut bread
  • 1/4 cup egg whites
  • 1 scoop (30g) vanilla or unflavored protein powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon oil or cooking spray (for skillet)

Instructions

  1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together egg whites, protein powder, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
  2. Dip each slice of bread into the egg white mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
  3. For Skillet: Heat oil or cooking spray in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook each slice of French toast for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. For Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place the coated bread slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and firm.
  5. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Use day-old bread for best results, as it absorbs the batter better.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding a touch of your preferred sweetener to the batter if desired.
  • Top with fresh berries, a drizzle of sugar-free syrup, or a dollop of Greek yogurt for extra protein.
