For 2 servings, here’s what you’re gonna need:
- 2 eggs
- 2 egg whites
- 1 tablespoon almond milk (unsweetened)
- 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3-4 slices thick Dave’s Killer Bread (or any type of whole-wheat, whole-grain bread of your choice)
- 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
- Coconut oil spray
Garnish:
- Blueberries
- Strawberries
- Raspberries
- Bananas
- Low-sugar syrup
Directions:
- Create a batter by whisking together eggs, cinnamon, turmeric and protein powder in a small bowl. Dump the chopped walnuts onto a plate and place to the side.
- Grab a medium-large skillet and spray it with coconut oil. While the pan is heating up, take a slice of whole-grain or whole-wheat bread, dip both sides in the egg batter then dredge it through the walnuts until both sides are coated. Not a fan of walnuts? That’s cool, try pecans, almonds, or seeds – expand your horizons and try something new, alright?
- Gently place your fully loaded slices of french toast onto the pan. Once crispy (in a good way), it’s time to flip.that.toast. After cooking each side remove from skillet and top your fully loaded toast with some deliciousness like syrup, berries, or a banana and get ready to crush the day.
