Start your day with a protein boost
French toast is often seen as an unhealthy treat, but this high-protein version proves otherwise. By using whole-wheat or spelt bread and a protein-rich batter with cinnamon, you create a meal that feeds your muscles and jumpstarts your metabolism. Cinnamon also helps regulate blood sugar levels, ensuring steady energy all morning.
Toppings & Tips
Top your French toast with fresh fruit, a dollop of Greek yogurt, and some pumpkin seeds for extra crunch. Instead of sugar, use a tiny bit of pure stevia or just the natural sweetness of a mashed banana in the batter.
