Ingredients
- 4 egg whites
1 scoop Impact Whey Protein (Vanilla) - 100ml milk
- Pinch salt
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- ½ nutmeg
- 4 thick slices of white bread
1 tsp. 100% Coconut Oil 60g Protein Spread (Chocolate Hazelnut) - 50g blueberries
1 tbsp. Sugar-Free Syrup
Method
- Firstly, mix the whey protein and milk together, making sure you have no lumps (the quickest and easiest way to do this is in a shaker).
- Then, in a large bowl, mix together the egg whites, milk and protein mixture, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
- Next, dip each of your slices of bread into the mixture, making sure all parts of the bread are covered. Allow enough time for the bread to soak up the batter.
- Then, heat a small amount of coconut oil in a large frying pan (roughly 1 tsp. between all four slices) and add your bread slices.
- Fry each slice for 3-5 minutes on each side or until the bread is slightly crispy on the outside, and remove from pan.
While the French toast is still warm, spread a generous amount of our delicious Protein Spread on each slice and build your French toast stack. Garnish with blueberries and a drizzle of Sugar-Free Syrup over the top, then dig in!
