Protein French Toast

3 · ·

Want to start your day with a balanced breakfast? Then you need to add this satisfying protein-packed French toast to your meal prep routine!

Three plastic meal prep containers with a slice of protein french toast, fresh berries, and a 2oz container of greek yogurt in each one.

I try to prep a protein-focused breakfast every week, because starting off with the right amount of protein really helps keep me on track for the rest of the day.

I lean in to a lot of the classics like protein pancakes and overnight protein oats, but I’m always looking for new ideas to keep me interested. When I first learned about protein french toast, it was like love at first sight!

This recipe isn’t too different from your standard french toast. It contains extra eggs and greek yogurt topping for added protein. Vanilla whey powder adds even more protein, while also eliminating the need to use additional sugar.

Ingredients

A carton of egg whites, loaf of bread, half gallon of milk, eggs, cinnamon, maple syrup, greek yogurt, and protein powder.

  • Bread – Use any bread you’d prefer. I like Dave’s Killer bread, but also sometimes use sourdough.
  • Egg – I use a mix of eggs and egg whites.
  • Milk – You can use any milk you’d prefer (cow, almond, soy, etc), just be sure to recalculate the macros if you don’t use whole milk.
  • Protein powder – I like vanilla whey protein powder in this, but you can experiment with different flavors.
  • Cinnamon – I use Saigon cinnamon. Any variety is fine.
  • Greek yogurt – Use plain greek yogurt to avoid any additional sweeteners.
  • Maple syrup – I add maple syrup to the greek yogurt as a sweetener. You can substitute honey, stevia, or any other sweetener.
  • Berries – I like a mix of fresh raspberries and blueberries.

Tips

  1. Whisk the protein powder into your milk so that it fully dissolves before adding to the egg mixture, otherwise it will end up in clumps.
  2. The best way to reheat this is to put in a non-stick pan over medium heat for a few minutes on each side. This keeps it moist and less chewy than the microwave.
