# What You’ll Need:
→ Bread
01 - 8 slices whole-grain or high-protein bread
→ Egg and protein mixture
02 - 4 large eggs
03 - 1 cup milk (dairy or unsweetened almond milk)
04 - 2 scoops vanilla or unflavored protein powder (about 2.1 oz)
05 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
06 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
07 - Pinch of salt
→ Cooking
08 - 2 tablespoons butter or neutral oil, for frying
→ Toppings (optional)
09 - Fresh berries, to taste
10 - Greek yogurt, to taste
11 - Sugar-free syrup or honey, to taste
12 - Sliced banana, to taste
# How to Make It:
01 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, protein powder, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon and a pinch of salt until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.
02 - Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or neutral oil to lightly coat the surface.
03 - Working one at a time, dip each slice of bread into the custard, allowing it to soak for a few seconds per side so it absorbs but does not become falling-apart saturated.
04 - Cook the soaked slices in batches in the preheated skillet for 2–3 minutes per side, turning once, until each side is golden brown and cooked through; add more butter or oil between batches as needed.
05 - Transfer cooked slices to a wire rack or plate to drain and cool slightly; allow to cool to room temperature before portioning for storage to prevent condensation.
06 - Portion cooled slices into meal-prep containers for 4 servings; refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months in a sealed bag after flash-freezing on a tray.
07 - Reheat slices in a toaster, oven or microwave before serving and top with fresh berries, Greek yogurt, syrup or sliced banana as desired; pair with extra Greek yogurt or nut butter for additional protein.
