Protein French Toast Bake
Pair your french toast with turkey sausage + berries for a balanced breakfast!
Serves: 8
Ingredients:
1 loaf (12 small slices) bread (i like sourdough)
2 cups liquid egg whites
4 whole eggs
1½ Fairlife 2% Milk
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (Clean Simple Eats)
¼ cup maple syrup or sugar-free syrup
1 tbsp vanilla extract
2 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt
Optional Toppings:
SF maple syrup
Fresh berries
Mini chocolate chips
Turkey sausage on side
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F and spray a 9x13 baking dish.
Cube bread and spread evenly in dish.
In a bowl, whisk egg whites, eggs, milk, protein powder, syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
Pour mixture evenly over bread. Press gently so everything gets soaked.
Let sit 10–20 minutes (or overnight for max flavor).
Bake 45 minutes, covered, and then another 15 minutes uncovered until set and lightly golden. Keep an eye on it! Different breads cook differentl.
Cool slightly, slice, and portion for the week.
PRO TIP: if you like a crispier middle, bake your cubed bread for 5-10 min before adding liquid!
