A quick and easy high-protein French toast recipe boasting over 30 grams of protein per serving, made with eggs, egg whites, milk, protein powder, and your choice of bread, cooked to crispy perfection without added refined sugars.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggs
  • 6 large egg whites (or ½ cup liquid egg whites)
  • ½ cup milk of choice
  • 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla whey recommended, or any preferred flavor such as chocolate, pea protein)
  • 1 tablespoon sweetener (optional)
  • ½ – 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 9 slices of your favorite bread (high-protein bread recommended)
  • 1 – 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil spray (for greasing the pan)

Instructions

  1. In a large shallow dish or casserole, whisk together eggs, egg whites, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla until smooth; stir in protein powder and whisk until fully dissolved.
  2. Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  3. Grease the skillet with butter or olive oil spray.
  4. Dip two slices of bread at a time into the batter, flipping to coat both sides; let soak about 45 seconds to 1 minute.
  5. Place soaked slices on the hot skillet and cook until golden and crispy, about 4–5 minutes total, flipping halfway through.
  6. Repeat soaking and cooking with the remaining bread, greasing the pan as needed.

Notes

Whisk protein powder vigorously to avoid clumps., Cut bread into sticks before soaking for a faster cooking time and enjoyable twist., Ensure soaking time is at least 45 seconds to 1 minute for full flavor absorption., Use butter or non-stick spray to achieve crispy edges., Experiment with different protein powder flavors like chocolate, pumpkin spice, gingerbread, or peanut butter., Add toppings such as Greek yogurt, fresh berries, banana slices, maple syrup, honey, whipped cream, chocolate chips, or nut butters., Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days., Freeze cooled slices individually for up to 2-3 months., Reheat in toaster or oven for best texture; microwave may cause sogginess.
